Wu long tea as a name comes from a Chinese term that is understood to mean “black dragon.” Wu long tea is also spelled oolong because of its pronunciation in the Min Nan spoken variant. Wu Long  is a semi-oxidized tea, ranging from 10 percent to 70 percent oxidation. When consumed on a daily basis, oolong tea can trim both body fat and waist circumference. This type of tea is considered by some as a good weight loss tea. In a Japanese study, people who drank a bottle of oolong tea every day lost 2.9 pounds after 3 months. Oolong is not merely a weight loss tea; it is also rich in antioxidants that reduce free radical damage. Most people brew their wu long tea strong, and a sweet aftertaste is left following the bitterness.
