What is Wulong Choice Chinese Oolong Tea? Legend has it that Oolong Tea (also known as “Wulong”) first came into existence during the Chinese Song Dynasty (906-1279 CE). Around this time, Emperors were often gifted “Tribute Teas”, prompting one producer to go above and beyond with his royal present. In an attempt to stand out from the crowd, workers from Beiyuan garden in Fujian created a dark Loose Leaf variety. No Emperor had ever received such a gift, the norm being compressed Teacakes. However, the infusion proved a tremendous success! Eventually, it became known as Wulong, meaning “Black Dragon”, but this name eventually morphed into Oolong – or so the story goes.
