Can you guys clear something up for me...I thought I read somewhere that oolong is a green tea...is this true?
Which leads to my second question...where can I find a good green jasmine? I like adagio's jasmine #5, but want a green based jasmine.
Any help will be greatly appreciated!
Thanks and happy holidays to all!!

Then some oolongs are referred to as green oolongs since they are so lightly oxidized. Pouching anyone?
The jasmine is one of those teas that has no one single distinctly correct classification, though authentic ones are scented with flowers vs. flavored with jasmine as an afterthought.
Some call jasmine a pouchong since it is slightly oxidized during production, and this has some truth to it.
