Tasting Notes

From our Chief Tea Taster
Submit
Aroma
Fragrant; evocative of fuchsia peony, honeysuckle with notes of muskmelon.
Appearance
Light Gold
Taste
A light-bodied, brisk cup which starts with a sweet-floral texture, evocative of Asiatic lilies and honeysuckle which gradually evolves to gain prominence as you make your way through the cup.

Luscious fruity tones akin to muskmelon is discernible towards the middle, rendering a mellow texture to the liquor. Muted spring-green accents shore up around the edges which however ebb to finish on a radiant fragrance of hyacinths, making for a distinguished feel on the palate.

The second steep is equally enjoyable and brings forth delectable tones of raw mango and is recommended with ice for an exhilarating experience.

Pretty good. Not on...

Pretty good. Not on par with Puttabong or Samabeong or Seeyok but holds it own. Classical first flush mustavel flavors. Worth buying.

Overall good tea

There is no other tea to buy except this first flush Darjeeling Oolong tea in Teabox for Oolong tea lovers. I love it when i steep in the evening. But when the tea is steeped for the second time, i don't like it as much. I usually steep the tea a second time in the morning. I would request Teabox to keep more first flush Darjeeling Oolong teas.

Best Oolong I have had in a long time...

Best oolong tea I had in a long time. Very fresh being picked in the last few weeks. Flowery taste and smooth taste. No astringency at all. Really like it a lot.

Sweet notes of the Singbulli Oolong

My first time sipping Singbulli Oolong. Loved the flowery and biscotti aroma and the 🍉 melony nutty flavours with an ample mouthfeel. Will certainly order again

Great

This was my first 1) Taste of Oolong 2) Purchase from teabox.

1. Oolong experience: Very similar to taste of first flush white Darjeeling tea. But it is more smooth and giving a better experience somewhat. Enjoyed with medium sweetened cookies.

2. Teabox experience: Very satisfactory. I am around 2000 km away from Darjeeling but received within 4 days with a very reasonable shipping charge. Secondly the personalised message and The Gift obviously (adding two different estate first flush spring chinary black.) A bog thanks to Team Teabox.

Very Good

Tried as a part of oolong collection as i'm new to oolong variety of tea. I was pleasantly surprised by this tea. This was like a cousin to Billimalai Spl Winter Frost White Tea !! Same signature smell but a little milder fragrance. Smooth, pleasant and great estate tea to savour :)
