Toasty and Invigorating--Great for the Travel Mug! (Friday, May 07, 2010)
Reviewer: Stephanie

Scent: Faintly like fresh hay and green leaves. Some sweetness. Taste: Sweet and refreshing!! Very root-like with some fresh green earth. This has been steeping for awhile in my travel mug, so the taste is a bit toasty too. I really like this tea—I like its sweet earthy green-ness. And it looks strangely cool also—like little dusty green pebbles of tea. They stay predominantly pebble-y while brewing too, with just a couple here and there gaining the courage to unfurl.

Very good (Monday, April 05, 2010)
Reviewer: Jodi

I agree with the description on this tea, it is surprisingly refreshing. I would recommend this as a morning tea.

The Best (Friday, April 02, 2010)
Reviewer: marion

The Ginseng Oolong tea has a wonderful smooth taste. It is one of my favorites and can see why it won an award.

What a flavorful, refreshing tea! The flavor stays through several steeps, a perfect pick-me-up for those Monday morning blues.

Cool looking little pebbles of tea! (Sunday, February 14, 2010)
Reviewer: Stephanie

I'm surpised how much I enjoyed drinking this tea! The taste is refreshing and mild and a bit "root-like". It was my introduction to oolong tea and it was a great first impression. So, thanks for the sample--I will be ordering more!

This tea was awesome with it smooth taste and texture. If measured and steeped correctly, you will enjoy this tea to the fullest, I sure did.

What a unique tea, this organic oolong. I'm typically a black tea drinker, but this sample you sent was really mild yet interesting. It may get me out of my "black hole."

A very pleasant surprise (Saturday, January 16, 2010)
Reviewer: Katie

I wasn't sure about this tea at first because they look like little pebbles and sound like them to when they hit the strainer! What a pleasant surprise though. The leaves don't really open up much, but this tea has a gorgeous taste. So clean and healthy and the perfect strength. I just bought some more!

Interesting Tea (Sunday, December 13, 2009)
Reviewer: Elizabeth

This is high-quality green oolong with a refreshing, naturally sweet flavor. the nuttiness of the oolong really compliments the taste of ginseng! Holds up to several steeps.

Favorite tea (Monday, July 13, 2009)
Reviewer: Elisabeth

I love oolong tea and this is one of my favorites. You can tell it is a good quality tea. My husband would buy me tea in China and this comes very close to the teas he would buy in their tea shops. I'm already on my second bag!

Never comes undone (Thursday, May 07, 2009)
Reviewer: Michelle

I'm amazed at how this tightly rolled tea doesn't come undone. The flavor is good and get a little bitter when steeped too long which I tend to do by choice. Still it's a good tea and good for you too.

Very good tea (Sunday, August 24, 2008)
Reviewer: asp

I had some ginseng oolong while studying abroad in China and came back to the states longing for it. I was excited to try this and it is a very good tea but it is not exactly like the tea I had before, which was like instant exhilaration. Well worth the price though and I will likely buy it again. Thank you.

A sweet cup (Monday, August 04, 2008)
Reviewer: Susan

This makes a pleasant cup of tea, not to strong, not too weak. A good alternative to regular tea. Beth's description of the tea is pretty much what you get. :)

Finalist no surprise (Wednesday, May 28, 2008)
Reviewer: Veda

I'm not surprised Ginseng oolong is a finalist in the World tea competition. It's my favorite oolong due to it's unique, crisp, and balanced flavor. The leaves are so tight and easily tolerate several infusions making it a bargain buy!

Very Good (Saturday, May 10, 2008)
Reviewer: Michelle

I like this tea. I was surprised that the leaves did not unfurl, wasn't a problem taste is very good.

Good Oolong With Lots of Flavor (Saturday, April 26, 2008)
Reviewer: Shad

The ginseng oolong that I received is flavorful and refreshing. I enjoyed a cup of this tea which I received in the premium oolong sampler. I'm a fan of oolongs and this is a good one to try out.
