   Excellent tea, rich flavor, long lasting, December 29, 2006

   This is a very good oolong tea with very plesant fragrance and sweetness, It is especially good for the people new to green tea and not quite used to the pungent grassy taste of green tea. The tea is amber color, with a very nice taste and delicious sweet aftertaste.

   Oolong tea is very helpful in digestion. It is widely drunk in Fujian China, and Japan. And it becomes more and more popular all around the China. Oolong has so many different other names: Wu-Lung, Wu-long. It is really the same thing, just different pronunciation from different parts of China (Mandarin, Taiwanese, or Cantonese). The premium oolong can be extremely expensive, most for its fragrance, color, sweetness, where grown or when picked. It can cost over $200 for just 1 oz (you won’t see them out of China though). But if you are really for green tea healthy benefit or oolong’s natural slimming effect, this is an excellent inexpensive wuyi oolong tea!
   It has very nice complexity. The long lasting gentle sweetness is very plesant. To prepare, I added 1 tea spoon to Bodum Assam Tea Press (4-Cup). You can prepare at least 3 times out of that 1 tea spoon. Comparing to tea bags, this is a bargain. If you drink oolong for natural slimming, you really need to drink it every days. I have been drinking oolong tea for lowering my cholestrol level and weight control. This is one of the better taste oolong tea available at pretty good price!

   Great tea,great taste. I’ve tried other brands of oolong tea but this one is one of the better ones. I drink it almost every day. If you like Chinese tea you’ll love this one.

   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. It produces a cloudy, medium brown brew with strong, slightly rough flavor. Oolongs from this particular location are reputed to aid in losing weight. I prefer smoother oolongs with a lighter, clearer brew, but this is a matter of taste. This is a good, solid but not inspiring tea.
