A lightly oxidized leaf that releases a delicate, flowery liquor. The sweet and refreshing taste is enhanced by the fragrance of lilacs. A truly exquisite tea.

This tea is my favorite now over Japanese Sencha. So fresh and floral.
Great daily tea. Mild and easy on the stomach.

This is one of my go-to daily tea choices. I like to drink it first thing in the morning. While some tea can upset my stomach if I haven't eaten, this tea does not. ... unless i let it steep for way too long (longer than recommended). It's mild, but wakes me up. It's a lighter oolong. I brew the leaves 3-4 times.
A delicate brew full of the smells of spring.

Wonderful floral notes from the opening of the bag through the last cup. I'm brewing gongfu style and these fine leaves last me all day through multiple infusions. I enjoyed my sample so much I reordered a big bag right away. A great value for the money.
Delicious Floral Scented and Flavored Cup

I purchased samples of a selection of teas based on Daniel Reid’s book, the Art and Alchemy of Chinese Tea to brew Gong Fu style. This tea brewed a beautifully scented and flavored floral cup. I am ordering more.
The sweetest, butteriest, most flavorful oolong ever...

I have been drinking this tea for years. I'm always trying other teas (to try to find something cheaper) but I always come back to this one. It's my favorite in the whole catalogue.

This was my first, high quality loose leaf tea. I drank this with my girlfriend and while neither of us cared for the scent, we really enjoyed the flavor. The tea leaves a kind of buttery feel on the tongue that I found interesting as well.
