My first oolong, and I have to say, it was quite delicious. I had this in the teabag format. The flavors were very soothing, extremely smooth, and the mouthfeel was not astringent at all. It’s a quiet, mild cup of tea, one that I could see myself drinking on a somewhat regular schedule. Was it anything to rave about and call the relatives about? No. But there were some complexities that I can’t even begin to describe (as a newbie tea-drinker), and it intrigued me. I’ll be having another cup of this soon!

I actually have no idea if this is halfway decent or not. I’ve never tasted an oolong, after all! It’s Ten Ren’s highest quality oolong in a bag, however!
I had no idea decent oolong came in bags. Thanks for the heads up.

I’ve heard good things about Ten Ren and I think they get their tea directly from China (?) so at least you can say it’s authentic. :D
