[EN] We love this jade oolong. It’s very lightly floral (if I am really in the mood for floral, I drink a jasmine tea instead). It can be steeped 4 or 5 times. Not too astringent or bitter.

[EN] Honeysuckle, honeysuckle, honeysuckle, and did I mention honeysuckle? Very bright and floral- and extremely good for the price.
[EN] You will want to try this if you prefer flower, sweet, oily tea. Leaves are nice and green, expand greatly to fill your gaiwan, and easily lasts over 5 infusions. This tea is best after a full stomach. Pairs well with osmanthus flower, or dried fruit. A lighter, silky introduction to green oolongs. Perfect to keep in stock as it is very affordable.
[EN] This tea is a fine example of a very affordable "high" mountain Oolong.
You can find many better high mountain Oolongs but you'll also pay significantly more for the pleasure. Has the lovely floral notes you'd expect from an oolong of this type and even had that sweet, candy like fragrance typical of high mountain teas. Think some of the fragrance has been a little lost in recent batches but you will not find a better "high" mountain Oolong at this price. This Jade Oolong is , in my opinion, far superior to the Ali Shan and Mei Shan high mountain available on this site. Great tea at great price. What more do you need? Value for money: Second to none
[EN] Has grown on me. An excellent dinner tea with sushi, light and slightly floral, on the green tea side of the spectrum. Family has been drinking 2-3 pots every other night and we are almost out. Surprisingly the only Oolong tea my sister likes.
[EN] The floral overtones of this oolong are absolutely heavenly.

[EN] Soo good! It is one of my favourite Oolongs. It is so light and easy to drink, with strong floral notes. Definitely is best brewed Gong Fu style.
[EN] For Gaiwan brewing this tea is perfect. Leaves are whole and expand greatly the more you pour. I like that this tastes very similar to a green Jasmine but more smooth. Perfect for after meals.
[EN] Phil, Jeff I have listened to your words of wisdom and thank you for your help
[EN] Tastes much like green tea and brews a similar colour, not quite what I'd expect from an Oolong but it's not bad.

[EN] It’s quite nice, it’s better than their tie guan yin, that was really disappointing. It has a heavy thick body when brewed gong fu cha style. It has log floral tasting notes, smells pleasant. I might buy this again with a discount.

[EN] I liked this one a lot better than the tie guan yin, still think it’s a bit old or maybe not made very well, but it had more aromas and more flavour than tie guan yin, and had more thickness. It’s fine you can keep it, I would buy it again but on discount.
[EN] Smooth light green liquor. early infusions have a slight jack fruit/guava aftertaste. later infusions have more floral notes (jasmine in particular). Slight vegetable/grassy notes (fresh cut grass). Long finish. feels sweet in the throat. lasts for about 7 infusions (gong fu style brewing).
would strongly reccommend.
[EN] Very good oolong. Rice floral aroma, but not overpowering. The type of flowers I can guess in the taste is what makes this tea special to me. It’s a very refreshing and calming tea, which makes it perfect as an afternoon tea or on a rainy lazy morning. Lovely.
