If you are looking for a lighter cup of Oolong tea, this is definitely one to try! With its very unique flavour with slight hints of the traditional milk Oolong, it makes for a delicious cup of tea, perfect any time of day. This Oolong tea is also great on its own, or with a little bit of Agave Nectar, which brings out the floral flavour of this tea even more.

The taste is definitely more of a fruity blend than a black – it is very smooth. The ingredients indicate both spearmint and peppermint, but until I read that, I actually didn’t even notice since they are so subtle. I have enjoyed this tea both hot and cold. The wonderful thing about this tea is that it will satisfy your sweet tooth!

I would recommend this tea even if you were not concerned or trying to lose weight. It is extremely sweet and fruity. It has such a fresh citrus tang that it truly is refreshing. I recommend drinking this late morning or early afternoon when the sweet cravings start to kick in.

Wen Shan Bao Zhong from Naivetea

This oolong has a wonderful floral aroma that is even stronger on a second steeping than on the first. The floral impression is so strong that you’d almost think there were rose or jasmine petals, even though there aren’t. The tea is good for several steepings.

White Peach Oolong Tea from Stash Tea

It is very “peachy keen” and kind of reminds me of a lightened version of the cooked peach juice that would ooze out of my gramma’s peach pie.

Prior to steeping this smells like a peach wine, almost. Lovely scent, really. During/after steeping it’s more of a peach scented candy.

Wuyi Oolong from Adagio Teas

An earthy first steeping and a spicy second steeping – and the mesh pyramids this whole leaf tea comes in make it more convenient for a second steeping. On the first steeping, this is a medium-colored brew, with an earthy flavor – a bit mushroom-y, a bit nutty. Not too green, not too dark, as smooth as an oolong should be.

Wuyi Oolong from Distinctly Tea

If you consider yourself a “veteran” of Oolongs, I definitely recommend trying this tea! A bit more robust than some Oolongs I’ve had, it still has the slightly sweet and creamy flavour I’ve come to associate with Oolong tea. A great afternoon tea if you need to be perked up a bit.

Wuyi Oolong from Zhi Tea

Cozy and toasty are words that I would use to describe the flavor of this amazingly complex tea as well. It has a very comforting flavor to it: slightly smoky but more of a “roasty-toasty” taste than smoke.

Wuyi Rock Oolong from Enjoying Tea

Hints of fruit and wood introduce themselves briefly at about mid-sip, creating interest and sweetness for the palate. The tea is quite smooth and mellow with a velvety mouthfeel. It is a pleasure to sip this Oolong!

Yamabudo Oolong from Lupicia Tea

This is a very pleasant tea … even if it is grape flavored! It is one that I’d certainly try again if offered. It has an enjoyable tartness to it (but not too sour) and doesn’t taste artificial or too sweet. There is some astringency to the cup which seems to highlight the wine-like qualities of this cup. Overall, a very good cup of tea!

Yellow Gold Oolong from Eteaket certainly is SWEET! And when they say ‘grass’ in the product description it is a SWEET grass! Not a grassy-grass or a bitter-grass.

Yuzu Oolong from Naivetea

It smells fruity with a floral tone. The taste, though, is so gentle, refreshing and unique. A bit of fruit – a sweet floral taste as I swallow – followed by a creamy aftertaste.
