Thought I’d try this tea. Wrong choice. Tea is not as good as Numi’s Iron Goddess of Mercy Oolong tea. Perhaps my favorite Oolong. Shipping costs almost as much as the tea on the Natural Chinese Wuyi Oolong. I’ll stay with Numi Tea from now on.

Although I am not a tea expert, but I do drink tea daily (not from tea bags).
This tea is not the worst that I ever had, but for the price I can only rate it one star. The flavor is too mild or weak. From what I can tell, this should not even be classified as oolong tea.

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. 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. However, I am not satisifed with it. Even after steeping for a long period of time, the tea was dark but the taste was stale & not rich at all. I bought this because the price was good, and gave it 2 stars because it arrived nicely packaged & quickly. However, I would rather pay more money in the future for a better tasting tea.

I really enjoy this tea. Has the best flavor of any of the oolongs I have tried. The leaves are whole and you do not get a lot of tea particles in your cup or pot.
