Actually, pouchong teas are fermented less than oolong teas. It seems to me the flavour is more subtle but the bouquet seems to have a broader olfactory range. Very delicate to the taste and the nose. My favourite is the pouchong, but sometimes I feel like tasting something with just a little more "presence" while still staying in the green tea genre. I used to buy my pouchong and high mountain oolong from a source in Vancouver, but it is no longer available so I now buy my pouchong from Tenren and Tentea, and my oolong from "Tea from Taiwan". ~jim
