How to Brew Oolong Tea Simply 🍵✨

1. Why Oolong Tea?

Oolong tea is one of Vietnam’s most beloved teas, known for its fragrant aroma, balanced taste, and rich health benefits. Brewing it correctly allows you to enjoy its full flavor and calming qualities.

2. Preparation

Before brewing, make sure you have:

• Good quality Oolong tea leaves (choose trusted sources for freshness).
• Clean water without odors or impurities.
• Teaware: a teapot, tea cups, and optionally a serving pitcher.

3. Two Easy Steps to Brew Oolong Tea

Step 1: Rinse the Tea

• Place tea leaves in the teapot.
• Pour hot water over them quickly, then discard the water.
• This step helps “wake up” the leaves and remove any dust.

Step 2: Steep the Tea

• Add hot water again (temperature around 92–96°C / 197–205°F).
• Let the tea steep for about 1 minute.
• Pour into cups and enjoy immediately.

4. Tips for the Best Flavor

• Adjust steeping time: Shorter for lighter taste, longer for stronger flavor.
• Reuse the leaves: Oolong can be steeped multiple times, with each infusion offering a new layer of taste.
• Relax and enjoy: Brewing tea is not just about the drink—it’s a moment of calm and mindfulness.

5. Conclusion

Brewing Oolong tea doesn’t need to be complicated. With just two simple steps—rinsing and steeping—you can create a fragrant, delicious cup of tea. Whether you’re sharing with friends or enjoying alone, Oolong tea brings warmth, health, and tradition to every sip.

There’s a simple joy in the forced slow down of a cup of tea brewed with intention. Brittany and Joseph Wight, the sister and brother team behind WIGHT TEA COMPANY, are helping usher in Baltimore’s new age of modern tea drinkers, modernizing an ancient beverage into something carefully concocted and artfully served - preparing drinks more akin to a craft cocktail bar than a rose-covered Victorian tea room from your grandmother’s generation.

Alas, it was their grandmother’s affinity for tea that became the meeting point where the founding siblings formed a friendship despite their seven-year age difference. They soon came to appreciate the ritual of preparing loose leaf tea, chock full of flavor and ready to bloom when heated just right.

Today, Wight Tea Company is using their platform as artisanal teamakers to bring generations together - kids, peers, and older friends - and to build a sense of community. Their first retail location recently opened at Whitehall Mill in Hampden and is serving drinks to enjoy on-site or on-the-go.

All of Wight’s loose leaf tea blends are designed by Brittany and Joseph and are hand-blended by their very small staff. These specialized flavors translate to an elevated drinking experience, something you can’t get from a microwaveable tea bag. Joseph approaches his blends as a mixologist, building a flavor structure to ensure combinations taste good and look beautiful. Both siblings value the complete sensory experience that brewing tea evolves. This is evident in the colorful and texturally interesting blends that might feature flowers for flavor and beauty or walnut shells for texture. Their teas look good, smell great, and taste even better. 

Teas can be served as warm beverages or as tea cocktails. Check out the rotating menu to see what cocktails Joseph has recently designed.

For those new to brewing loose leaf tea, Wight Tea Company sells infusers, tea and mugs to get you started. They’ve got everything you need to start your own ritual, bringing mindfulness and intention to every little sip. Order tea and accessories online, or visit them at Whitehall Mill.
