Brightea Monkey Picked Oolong Tea Loose Leaf Monkey Picked China Tie Guan Yin Iron Mercy Goddess 4.1 Ounce Tin (Supreme Grade)

Very good tea, if you steep it for a long time. I like mine steeped at least 15 min, the longer the better. Also, I find the packaging excessive. The whole leaves are vaccuum sealed in a double layer of plastic wrapping. I know it's supposed to keep it fresh longer, but I have had other good teas that are loose in regular air-tight tins and they stay good for years. It's too much work to keep having to unwrap the packaging, not to mention the burden on the environment.

The whole leaves require a large volume to be used, and a long steeping time to get any real flavor. The flavor itself is mild, but quite pleasant. There's no re-steeping with these leaves, so the value is somewhat limited.

This is the real deal (very high quality oolong) and quite the bang for your buck. It’s oolong with a nice light floral taste (similar to jasmine) and it is definitely the best tasting oolong tea you can buy (without breaking the bank.) I love the design of the can and the individually packed tea. It preserves freshness and removes the need to measure for brewing a pot. Honestly, don’t buy this. I want it all for myself! Already stocked up on extra. 😜

Not sure why this got good reviews or that it can be advertised as “supreme grade”. The taste is below average.

individual packets are hard to open

I'm able to reuse each packet twice or even three times. I like to blend it with another tea.

What a delightful surprise! The flavors and aromas that unfold over the course of sips and cups are an experience worthy of high praise.

will continue to buy this tea
