GABA Oolong is close to a black tea in terms of complexity and depth of flavor, however it has so much more to offer. GABA stands for gamma-aminobutyric acid and this tea is given the name GABA because of the oxygen-free oxidation process of the leaves after harvest. Because of this unique process, the GABA compound is increased and is popularly believed to provide the tea drinker with reduced anxiety and calming benefits.

This process of making GABA tea also produces its bold fruity flavors that are truly unmatched (and amazing as a cold brew). Just like most other oolongs, this tea can be re-steeped several times, allowing you to enjoy the calming effects time and time again.
