This tea is not the worst that I ever had, but for the price I can only rate it one star. From what I can tell, this should not even be classified as oolong tea. Although I am not a tea expert, but I do drink tea daily (not from tea bags). The flavor is too mild or weak.
Naturally slightly sweet, this is a great sipping tea to replace your soda or whatever.
However, I would rather pay more money in the future for a better tasting tea. However, I am not satisifed with it. I could not keep paying a lot of money for these quality teas, so I started my search for a cheaper wu-long tea, and that is why I purchased this tea. I bought this because the price was good, and gave it 2 stars because it arrived nicely packaged & quickly. I will likely not purchase this tea again. I've tried other varieties of wu-long which were much more sweeter, smoother and richer in taste. Even after steeping for a long period of time, the tea was dark but the taste was stale & not rich at all.
I've tried other brands of oolong tea but this one is one of the better ones. If you like Chinese tea you'll love this one. Great tea,great taste. I drink it almost every day.
Oolongs from this particular location are reputed to aid in losing weight. It produces a cloudy, medium brown brew with strong, slightly rough flavor. This is a good, solid but not inspiring tea. This is a strongly flavored, astringent oolong tea. It is reasonably priced (that is priced as a beverage) and the same tea being sold at several times the cost by various vendors pushing it for its weight loss properties. I prefer smoother oolongs with a lighter, clearer brew, but this is a matter of taste.
