Taste
Indulge in the delightful essence of spring with this exquisite Darjeeling Oolong, offering a light-bodied, smooth cup bursting with sweet-floral notes. From the outset, vibrant tones reminiscent of fuchsia peonies and white lilies captivate the palate, while sumptuous accents of vine peach add depth and a mellow texture. As the tea unfurls, subtle fresh-green undertones emerge, leading to a luminous finish redolent of hyacinths. For a truly sublime experience, a second steep at 4 minutes reveals delectable notes of raw mango, ensuring every sip is a journey of exquisite flavor and aroma.

Amazing

Oolongs and I don't get along very well, but the descriptions on the website last year made me take a chance. I'm so glad I did- the flavor is delicious and delicate but doesn't fade into the background. This year's harvest is slightly more vegetal in aroma but the taste is very much the same and it's marvelous. The low amount of caffeine makes it a great choice any time of day. The only thing that doesn't come through is the mango flavor on the second steep, but it's still enjoyable. Perhaps it's the style of oolong I was trying before or the quality, but I don't need to look any further than this.

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.

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.

I never knew . . .

I have never had tea this fresh. Truly a huge difference from the teas that I am accustomed to. I often lace my teas with flavorings but that is unnecessary as the flavor is so clean and fresh I can enjoy drinking this as is.

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.
