Fascinating History of GABA Oolong Loose Tea Originating in Japan in the 1980’s, GABA Oolong Tea owes its creation to Dr. Tsushida Tojiro and his team at the National Institute of Tea Science. Driven by a quest to unlock new health benefits in tea, their research revealed that fermenting tea leaves in an oxygen-free, high-nitrogen environment significantly increases the levels of GABA. A natural compound celebrated for its calming and mood-enhancing properties. This new method was first used on Japanese green teas, which quickly became popular for their relaxing qualities. The success of these teas caught the attention of Taiwanese tea makers, who are famous for their skill with oolong teas . They adopted and improved the process, applying it to their high-mountain oolong leaves from regions like Alishan. By combining Japanese innovation with Taiwan’s rich tea tradition, GABA Oolong Tea was born. A perfect blend of science and heritage.
