Despite the opinion of ChinaBoy, I too would like to know the location of said tea. It's been said that it helps with eczema (skin problem) if taken over a long period of time (about a week or so).

Any relevant information would be appreciated.

I don't mind Oolong, it's not that bad. There's a tea shop in Apgujeong, but it's off the main drag.

Get a Korean friend to help with the yellow pages.

You can buy it on Gmarket, but it's pretty pricey.

Oolong tea - when brew slightly, tastes OK. It's when you brew it for a long time that it becomes really strong and thick.

I am in HK right now and see Oolong tea wherever I see a Chinese herbal medicine shop.

I've seen it in department stores in the foreign food section. I've also seen it at the super markets from time to time.
It would be in Incheon China Town, I think.
