In contrast to the Birt&Tang version, this was delicious. I had it a few weeks ago. The flowers aren’t overpowering and because the oolong isn’t oxidised quite as much as some, the taste of the flowers seems to fit in better. Delicious, and the exception that proves the rule (that I usually don’t like flowery teas)

I’m only having this because I have teabags left over that need finishing [10 left after this one :-( ] and I won’t buy any more tea until I have finished up some of the tea in my cupboard. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, flowers seem to add nothing to a tea (other than colour to the leaves). I’m not saying they don’t taste of anything because they do, but I don’t like it, whatever it is

Not sure why I haven’t logged this before as I’m half way through the packet. I took a bit of care to follow the brewing instructions. It’s not the best white tea I’ve ever had but I had 3 pots of it this evening and I’m not complaining because it’s pretty good

Wow! Didn’t realise such a good chai could come out of a bag. It’s just spicy enough, plenty of tea, brilliant! Also expensive :-(

I was at a hotel when I tried this. It’s a very good tea indeed, better than the jasmine I have at home, but probably more expensive too!

The most expensive tea I’ve ever bought and I think it’s probably the nicest too. It’s certainly very good anyway. I didn’t put in properly boiling water and it took off the edge to it but it still tastes sweet and good!!

Even after several posts on this, it’s still good! For no articular reason, I often drink this without straining it – the tea leaves taste okay

Smells much nice than my other oolong, but then it’s much more expensive too – I have been introducing people to it because they all love its name!

I used my tight mesh infuser today so didn’t get too much tea powder get into my tea (it really is quite powdery more than leafy). Very much enjoyeed it, more than I’ve enjoyed it for a while, so I had a couple of pints

I decided having only one oolong in my cupboard was a shame, so bought this because of its wonderful name!! I do enjoy a nice cup of oolong… I still think you have to drink at least a couple of cups of oolong to enjoy it as much as possible, very nice savoury tea

I’m still drinking this from time to time. Today because I wanted a lazy teabag and some oolong to take away the sweetness of a couple of pints of coke I had earlier. I can really taste the raspberry tonight, but that’s unusual, normally I can’t even tell it’s there

I drink this very often because I can give it to people who like a ‘normal’ tea, although it’s actually quite special. Unfortunately when I drink with other people I often have black tea when I’d rather a green tea or oolong

I bought myself a thermometer, and boy, does it make a difference to my tea! I’m on a second brewing and it’s so soft and sweet, I’m never going to sleep…

Incredibly, this was only my second cup of this since I bought it two months ago. I wasn’t that impressed last time to be honest, possibly because I had high expectations of it. This time I really smelled its earthy (and perhaps fishy, as my housemate pointed out) smell and enjoyed it for what it was. I ill be drinking this a little more often now I feel

And then I had this without milk, but some had it with milk. I served others some ginger black tea and some oolong, but the green tea remained unused. Still, it was a sucessful party

I have this quite often, I don’t know why I haven’t logged it before. It’s proper and powerful and tasty and really good with milk and perfect to prove to people that there are better teas than PG Tips – it’s still a “normal” tea, but it’s brilliant. This was the second tea at my tea party

Educating some friends, I held a tea party with friends with cookies. I first drank this

After a day of drinking horrible tea at work (it was £1 for 100 bags so it was never likely to be good), this was a nice change – and I brewed it well enough for it to seem like a nice treat this evening

That’s the stuff. 2 pints of sencha that I wasn’t in the mood for, but this is really hitting the spot! Just needed to chill with some music, a magazine and some tea – I don’t do this enough

I’m not doing too well at picking the right tea for the moment these days. I wasn’t really in the mood for this tea today, but it was nice to have it again after not having it for a few weeks

Really growing on me, this is sooo good! I wish I’d bought more than 15 grams cos it’ll be done in no time at this rate. I had some yesterday too…

I love this tea. (As I remember) It’s from the german (I think) blenders Haelson and Lyon and is one of the few teas that I think geniunely goes quite well with or without milk although I tend to have it without. It’s cheap, very tasty, and my housemates love it, so it’s a winner in my book

Two cups this evening and they were lovely. It’s quite an earthy tea, a good replacement for Sikkim Temi that has now run out for the time being. Really goooood

As you’d expect from tetley, they have used the worst quality green tea, hoping it’ll be drowned out by the lemon. It’s not bad, I drank it and I’d probably have it again to be fair, but I’m sure there is something beter out there too…
