      Here’s at least one company in Australia making efforts into the tea industry:  http://www.perfectsouth.com.au/

      Looks to be entirely Japanese styled teas.

      If you are interested in tea not grown in traditional tea countries, this is another one in New Zealand: http://www.zealong.com/#

      They make only Taiwan style oolongs, only a few, but actually the same thing with different firing.

      I have had that. Quite a price tag for an average tasting Taiwan oolong, though. I bought that thinking I might be able to save some carbon footprint by buying it from our neighbour than from a bit further from Taiwan. However, they say in their website they use lights in place of the sun in wilt processing. It seems to me an awful lot of electricity for all those lights. I wonder if that’s really less carbon or more.
