I am not a tea expert but I know what I like. I have always loved tasting the "Monkey Picked Oolong" from "famous name mall tea store" but just couldn't bring myself to pay $25 for 2 ounces. This tea tastes very much like that one. and for a fraction of the price. In fact, I believe I like it better. I am not much for flowery tasting teas but this has just a hint of flowery sweetness that makes it delicious. With other teas, I often feel the need to add sweetener or creamer but to me, this is just perfect as it is. I will continue to drink other teas (green and white) for health benefits but for pure tea-drinking enjoyment, this is the best I have tasted. If you are thinking about trying this I say go for it!
