very sweet tea, with a strong floral fragrance

Even worse than individual oolong tea bags from grocery store shelves. Ill never order tea from this site again.

This is a nice tea, good sweetness and decent floral notes but it was a little subtle in overall flavor. This tea really opens up from its tiny size and yields an interesting clear green brew. For the price I will most likely pick this one up again.

this is a very good afordable oolong, with classic formosa green olong profile, very recommendable

I am not yet that used to oolongs, specially green ones. I still prefered the huang jin gui to the cui yui. I only had a small size of the cui yui and wonder if I still need to learn to brew it the right way. I might try again after expanding my experience with oolongs.
