like yunnan noir, this too reminds me of green tea, though I must admit I like the YN more. Very delicate, but plain taste, so I put a bit of sugar in to 'wake up' the flavor. I got it as a teabag sample previously and didn't know to reuse the leaves. I will remember it this time!

very floral and supprisingly sweet, even after two to three brewings. Good ballance of richness with the floral, beginning to taste more like a green tea from the third brewing on.

Initially sweet, but it has a horrible aftertaste that makes me think of phlegm and grass.

An absolutely excellent oolong. This has definitely opened my eyes to the wonders of green oolongs! It's sweet and floral, and it really hits the spot.

The leaves look beautiful: a combination of dark and light green crumpled in interesting and exotic shapes. The smell is light, fresh a bit grassy, reminds me of countryside.
Taste: it’s light (lighter than I imagined) complex, floral. Our family poll – my husband liked it a lot, I liked it and my daughter: not so much.

No better than an average oolong. Not sure if I'd try it again.

Oh Iron Goddess of Mercy help me stay a beauty. This tea is amazing and my number one favorite. I drink it like liquor, lol. It taste amazing, smooth, there is a hidden taste but its not strong or bitter you just cant put your finger on it. I drink it all day non-stop. I need to buy more soon. Its better then green teas and blacks.

I wanted to give this a higher rating, but I couldn't justify it. That aside, it's a lovely standalone tea, with an initial floral taste and some sweetness followed by a rich nutty flavour, but when compared to other teas of this type out there, it's simply not as good.

Ti kuan yin is my absolute favorite tea. The dry leaf has a sweet smell, and the brew reminds me of honeysuckle. I love making this tea for friends and I am never without some whereever I travel.

This makes a beautiful amber cup of tea. The taste has subtle flowery notes (hibiscus or possibly honey suckle). A refreshing oolong for any time of the day.

Just great. I get many steepings out of this one. many layers and each steeping offers something different. Special

I didn't care for this tea. I found it to be pretty bland.

This tea is light and smooth. A touch of honey makes it a great tea to relax with.

Not too heavy or too light. A slightly (but not too) grassy cup. Buttery and full-bodied. I love this tea.

A very smooth tea that is very light and pleasing with the sweetener of your choice. I always thought of TKY as very like green teas, and I was not disappointed.

I love this oolong. So subtle and smooth with rich, full leaves that create something I drink to relax, cleanse, and unwind.

Iron Goddess of Mercy is a must try if you like Oolongs, or are just getting to know them. Don't be surprised if you find yourself drinking this one by the pot.
