      After reading your article about the definition of semi-fermentd tea and oolong, I have a question for you:

      How would you define Dongfang Meiren, i.e. Champagne Oolong/Baihao Oolong?

      That is a very good question. We are actually developing a special feature on Taiwan oolongs and will cover Baihao Oolong in it. I hope to stay quiet on this topic for the time being and am much obliged for your patience until that feature is uploaded. However, please also understand that it is not going to be the next one. Sorry!

      The Taiwan oolong special will hopefully come about next June, weather permitting.

      I have with me a pack of very nice champaign oolong from Taipei and it looks nothing like the oolongs you describe in the oolong category. It looks more like the half fermented tea you wrote about in the oolong vs semi-fermented tea article, but I was told that this is a tea with a long history and was created very differently with some bugs involved. I just love it but do not know where to get more of it. Can you help?

      I’d love to tell you where to get the tea, Marian, but it would not be appropriate. I hope some other readers will do the favour. I agree with you that a fine champaign oolong is very impressive and makes one want more.
