[Osulloc] Master Tea


Introducing Osulloc, the renowned tea brand from Korea, celebrated for its exceptional green tea leaves sourced exclusively from Jeju Island.

Established in 1979 as a tea plantation on the picturesque Jeju Island, Osulloc benefits from its pristine environment, ideal climate, and volcanic soil—a perfect combination for cultivating tea.

The name Osulloc is derived from "O" (meaning "five" in Korean) and "sulloc" (meaning "rock" in the Jeju dialect), signifying the five rock formations found on Jeju Island. These unique geological features contribute to the tea's distinct flavor and exceptional quality.

Initially focused on supplying raw tea leaves to other companies, Osulloc expanded its operations in 1991 to establish its own brand. Embracing strict quality control and innovative tea-making techniques, Osulloc began processing and packaging its tea leaves, gaining recognition for its commitment to excellence.

In 2015, Osulloc made waves in the tea industry by triumphing at the North American Tea Championship, the world's largest tea show.

Today, we proudly introduce the Master Tea Collection, Osulloc's most premium selection of teas.

Choose from 4 Master Teas:

1. Illhoyang - Hand-Picked, Traditional Artisan Green Tea

This is directly hand-picked by tea masters in Early April - selecting only the first sprouts exclusively for this tea.

Out of the 4 Master Teas, Illohyang is the only one produced using the limited first-sprouts obtained from each annual batch.

The first sprouts have the least bitter and astringent taste, as well as more nuanced flavor notes

lllhohyang is also the recipient of highly prestigious international tea accolades:

  • #1 Top Winner at World Tea Champion (USA World Tea Expo) - 2009, 2010, 2011, 2014
  • Gold Award at World Tea Contest in Shizuoka, Japan - 2012, 2019, 2020
