★★★★☆
A good oolong, and there's nothing particularly bad about it, but if you can swing the money, #40 would be a better choice, but if not, this is still a great oolong tea.
A darker oolong tea from Taiwan, formerly known as Formosa (which means 'Beautiful'). Deep raisiny and ripe fruit aroma, autumn 'leafy' note. The lingering flavor and smooth, refreshingly fruity astringency and a lovely introduction to Taiwanese tea.

excellent quality for the price. i will buy this one again
Mmmmmmm. Mmmmmmmm. This could very well be my favorite everyday tea from Adagio. A great flavor. Not quite as good iced, but maybe I didn't make it strong enough.
Good enough for me to buy another 3oz. of it after my sampler was finished!
Not my favorite oolong, but not bad at all. If you are looking for a decent oolong, this could be for you.
It is a very good oolong, currently out of stock, but I prefer #40 slightly.
Great tea, but I say pay a little more for the Oolong #40 (it's worth it).
i ordered a bigger can because i loved the sample so much. a far different taste from jasmine #12 which is my favorite oolong, but still a great, light but flavorful cup of tea.
Fantastic medium flavor, perfect for when you don't want a robust black tea or a light green or white tea. The smell is slightly sweet and very inviting. The flavor is wonderful.
I liked this. It did have a nice flavor. I would order again as a daily drink.
This is pretty good. I'll try a couple other oolongs before I make a decision about buying #8 again though.
this is the first oolong i tried from adagio, and i enjoyed it very much. getting the 3oz next time and sampling more versions!
Not what I was expecting. It was bitter and not at all what I like in a tea.
Very nice and gentle tea, I'm sipping it right now, I'm very pleased with this one.
this was a very good tea. I never got a bad cup out of it, and I would recomend this to anyone who it trying oolong teas for the first time.
Just like the tea at our favorite Chinese restaurant.
Good flavor, but hard to brew a strong enough cup. I'll keep working at it!
My favorite oolong to date, can't wait to order more.
It's a decent enough tea. A little woody, a little grassy. I suspect that I prefer my oolong more on the oxidized side. This tea is like a dulled oolong #40 (oolong #40 being one of a handful of favorites, possibly my very favorite).
This is a nice ooolong and i will be getting more when my tub runs out!
I love oolong tea, and this one os fantastic. Lovely flavor, nice and light, great with meals.
I ordered this tea hoping it would taste like the tea served in Chinese restaurants. It does!!! It's a great anytime tea. I love it! I enjoy sipping it at work in the afternoons. I will definitely order this again.
Great taste. Ordered three different formulas of Oolongs and started with this one. Being as this is the first Oolong I've ever tasted, I am really happy.
Just seems like no frills oolong.. definitely enjoyable though.
Good, but no comparison to #40, which is much more complex and pleasurable to drink.
Of all the tea I have tried this is my second favorite (mambo is the best!).
This has to be my favorite tea. It's not overpowering, but still strong and very flavorful. It tastes delicious and doesn't require any additional flavoring such as sugar, milk, etc.
I'm not much of an oolong drinker, so this was a little strong for me. I'd rather go for a green or red tea, but this was a nice change once in a while.
Not too much flavor, I would recommend the wuyi instead.
In a word - delicious! This has become one of my 'must have' teas. Mild, even-flavored, balanced. I'm tempted to try the other oolongs, but can't imagine I could like them more than this one.
I also dont own this tea, so i couldnt tell you how it tastes
This was a good oolong, but oolong isn't one of my particular favourites. However, when I want a cup, this is the one that I choose.
I do like this tea, it is nice after dinner or to relax with a book. Not to strong but a nice pleasant lite flavor. One of my favorites
I really like this tea. It's stronger than a green but not as strong as a black. This is my first oolong, I think it would make a great tea any time.
This is a fantastic, simple oolong. I could drink it every day with a meal or by itself.
My first Oolong. I liked it but its hard to judge it completely since I have never had any other oolongs.
Nice, not over processed. Great supplement if you don't want to use up all of your jasmine... mix it up.
Really Tasty, plus can be steeped 4 times or so. Great tea--highly recommend. Not too pricey, especially for oolong
Out of the three Oolong teas I've tried from Adagio this is my favorite. Very reminiscent of what you get at the Chinese restaurant only a bit more flavorful.
I got my first order of the #8 Oolong Tea and I must say I was so pleased with the tea. I just started drinking Oolong, I found it a little stronger than my normal China Green tea, but I like the flavor a lot and look forward to ordering again. I got my tea so fast, that amazed me too. Thanks again.

This is one of my favorites for iced tea and I'll be ordering more. Delicious by itself or by adding just a tiny bit of flavored black teas I get a nice variety. Excellent!
Did not care for this one, a little dark and bitter for me.
this was a very good oolong on its own. nice and nutty, smooth, and great for rebrewing. i added it to the wu yi oolong and they rounded each other out wonderfully.
Nice smooth oolong with smoky flavors. I really enjoyed it.
i love OLONG. i even like saying the name. Ooooooooollllooonnngggg. this one is nice and mellow with really pleasent sweet notes. TRY IT
A bit stringent for my palette. Perhaps the next time I brew it I will let it steep for less time.
This is a great everyday Oolong tea. This has wonderful body to the tea without being strong flavored. I can drink this tea everyday (and do!) without tireing of the taste.
This has a very smoky and woody flavour. Not recommended.
this oolong was nice, but not the perfect match I was hoping for with that 'chinese resterant' flavor. Still, nothing to complain about!
Didn't care for this one much on its own, but mix it with some berry blues and you have a fantastic combination.
