Fancy Oolong are the Taiwanese export Oolong teas, of which the simpler qualities are called Choice Oolong. The Chinese name for Fancy is "Fanzhuang" and can be translated as "packed by barbarians/foreigners". Fancy Oolong is, thus, the "foreigners' tea" in Taiwan. These are quite strongly oxidised Oolongs which are not roasted and that are harvested throughout the year. Fancy and Choice Oolong are, depending on the quality, soft to strong, sweetish-tender and sometimes reminding of a light black tea.
