Oolong tea is made from the same plant that produces black and green tea, but while black tea is fully oxidized and green tea is not oxidized, oolong is semi-oxidized, then rolled to give it its signature shape. Oolong could be green-ish or brown-ish in color, and the variations in flavors are vast.
