Excellent Oolong for the price (i buy it at Whole Foods). Especially to new oolong drinkers, but I never get tired of it.

This is my first Oolong other than your typical Chinese restaurant tea. It kind of has the aftertaste of hour old fruity gum-First tasting notes are floral light citrus-I guess the Oolong are the little darker clumps—I think mine was pretty light on the Oolong, so I probably mostly just got the herbal part of this one-I think this will be a great refreshing tea to chill and put in a bottle for summer drinking. No additives, just straight tea-Very pleased—Although side note I am not sure if this is the Rishi brand, I got it from my local tea merchant and it was called Organic Citrus Oolong, he sells by the ounce, but this is the most similar tea I could find and from the pic, it looks the same

It’s a good smooth oolong but the lemon is a little distracting from the smoothness.

I was really excited about this one because flavored oolongs are rare and even taboo w/ some tea drinkers, but was disappointed. Instead of normally measuring it by weight (2.25g/6 fl. oz) I decided to put one teaspoon in because of the flavorings. I steeped it at 195 degrees F for 5 min in 6oz purified water. I personally like at least a 1:1, but preferably a 2:1 ratio of flavoring to true tea tast. Unfortunately the taste of the oolong was completely masked by the lemon. This would be good in TheraFlu or a hot toddy during the flu season with a lil honey and whiskey. I rated it a thumbs down because I personally do not like herbal teas alone, but if you don’t mind that you can’t taste the oolong tea it’s a very good tea.

I tried it again using premade vanilla sencha (you could use any green tea you like) and it was much better. you could actually taste the tea. Even though it is a flavor, I think the vanilla helped that because it mellowed out the tartness.

This one is all about the citrus scent. The flavor is light and barely there. If you warmed up a glass of water with a lemon wedge, I imagine it would taste like this.

Wow – I am a huge fan. This has a way of tasting juicy without being overly sour or sweetened. It is very much an equal mix of citrus and oolong, as opposed to oolong with some citrus in it. In fact, in the jar, I was like “wtf where is the tea??” because of all of the flowers. But once steeped, the oolong unfurls a TON and then it doesn’t seem so crazy. The blossoms are beautiful and prevent it from tasting like cleaning products for me, and I enjoy this hot or iced equally. Bonus, I steeped it three times and all three steeps were flavorful. This is a definite repurchase.

Smells very citrusy, taste is much more restrained. Stands up well to my occasional over-steeping abuse. Might be good to keep around for that orange burst…
