Oriarm Anxi Tie Guan Yin 250g - Chinese Tieguanyin Oolong Tea Loose Leaf - Fujian Wu Long Green Tea Ti Kuan Yin

I've been drinking different kinds of tea for over 60 years, and I know a winner when I taste it. This tea has an excellent flavor that lasts through multiple applications of new hot water. It has a very pleasant and fresh "earthy" taste that I really enjoy. Shipping took several days, but not really all that long. Packed very well, and very fresh. I'll be ordering more soon! Tie Guan Yin is one of my favorite styles of tea, and this one doesn't disappoint in the least.Along with the Tie Guan Yin tea that I originally ordered, Oriarm sent me a sample packet of rolled tender tea leaves with Jasmine flowers. It is another great product, and I immediately ordered more. I seldom brew tea in a pot, so I like styles that have full leaves, rather than powdered and crumbled bits. I add the tea to a "drinking jar" of hot water. These leaves were obviously picked tender and new, so they have a subtle, but distinctly flavorful taste. The jasmine flavor is not overpowering, as in some others. Best of all, the leaves are so tender that I can't help but chew on a few of them as I drink it. If you have never tried that, give it a shot--but start with a tender-leaf tea like Oriarm's Jasmine.I've already placed three orders for tea with this vendor. He is sending me some small sample packs of other varieties, and I look forward to trying them. I tend to make the first glass (okay, jar) a bit strong, then I refresh the leaves with hot water over the next few hours. The flavor changes just a bit each time, but it's always excellent.Yes, it takes several days for your shipment to arrive, but Oriarm's packing is not only excellent and secure, it is almost artistic. The sealed bags with a clever type of ziplock assure freshness, and the foam case with padded wrapping protects the tea so that it arrives in tip-top condition.If you have read this far, you are probably interested enough in different types of tea to know that the very best available can be incredibly expensive. I say that to explain that this is not quite of the quality of teas that will cost you many times as much per (put your own unit of weight here) as these, but you would be very hard pressed to find teas of this quality for double, or even triple, the price. I'm sure that you will be more than satisfied with Oriarm's products.

I order other teas and had to keep coming back to the tie guan yin. The fresh strong taste is green and refreshing-others I have tried have a brown rice taste I do not like. Also, the flavor with this tea lasts so long compared to others. I happy to become a loyal customer of Oriarm so I don't have to continue to shop around-no other tea is better by subscription than this tea.

for a price-quality ratio, this seriously cannot be beat. I've had more expensive $20/oz and less expensive (ten ren) bag tie guan yin and this right up there with the best. It's so fragrant, fresh, light, smooth - it's the tea I give my dad and drink myself (we're cantonese). I've given this to many tea friends and they also enjoy it quite a bitRe-bought over and over and always consistent flavors

Really high quality, amazing taste and smell, I love making this tea with a few goji berries mixed in to sweeten it

It was similar tasting but not as good as the free tea bags you get from the Chinese food places in ny here

We had been offered a can of Tie Guan Yin Oolong tea from a Chinese friend and liked it a lot. So I started looking on Amazon to get more of the same type of tea once we had finished the original batch.I was very pleased to find Oriarm's Anxi Tie Guan Yin oolong last fall and ordered some immediately. It was a great choice, on par with the original tea we were offered. I ordered more of the same tea in April, but this new batch does quite match the previous one: its taste is much lighter, though still very pleasant. But it is a product from Nature, so I can imagine that there will be variations in the batches, depending on the specific conditions (weather especially) they grew in.Still, I'll be back for more and look forward to being pleasantly surprised from time to time with an exceptional harvest.

This isn’t anywhere near the tie guan yin tea. It is really bad. Totally regret buying it.

I've purchased this every year for a while, and it is always great. I'm currently using samples that the seller included with other orders, and I am ordering a new shipment soon. It is a pleasant fall tea. Highly recommended.
