Spicy, vegetably taste. A full flavor. Would recommend.
Lightly oxidized oolong from Nantou county, Taiwan. Similar in style to Tung Ting, its tightly rolled leaves slowly unfurl through several steepings. Jade oolong is loved for its fresh green-floral aroma, sweet flavor, and delicate texture.

Spicy, vegetably taste. A full flavor. Would recommend.
love this one. I prefer the greener oolongs and this one is light and fruity, very smooth. my afternoon tea.
have to say it has a real weird smell like cinnamon sugar flowers haha but its really green tasting like vegetables not bad as i just sipped it letting it cool off
This tea is light and smooth. A touch of honey makes it a great tea to relax with.
Oolong 18 reminds me that life is good. If I could, I would buy pounds and pounds of oolong 18 and just roll around in it. Then I would tea-bag myself in 180 degree water for 5 minutes.
My favorite oolong, with a slight malt taste, and raw sugar sweetness and a floral finish. Brews to a medium amber.
This was actually my first oolong. It was a little different than I expected, but it is delicious. I just ordered more!
Another wonderful Formosa oolong. I could drink these every day. It's very floral, gentle and relaxing. Great for multiple infusions too.
My partner hated this and I found it acceptable. I think I needed to brew it a bit longer for one. It's a bit, hmmm, almost oceany if you don't brew it long enough. It gets better with a longer steep. I would choose oolong 40 but this is not bad.
Liked my sample more than my bulk. A bit bland compared to other oolong's I've acquired but definitely tasty and a good quantity tea.
The best thing I ever tried. I find myself proselytizing this tea and have made several converts. I want there to never be a day when I fail to drink a cup of this tea. I must stockpile so that I never run out. A very small teaspoon makes a great cup and even a second steeping if you get back to it relatively soon.
Oolong tea is my favorite and this one is also really good. It is sweeter than the others I have tried.
Not the best, but similar to a Jade Oolong. A natural sweetness that's very enjoyable.
Similar to the ali shan. Great tea with a bold flavor.
This one is a good, moderately priced oolong. Remindes me of the Pouchong. The Ali Shan and the Ti Kwan Yin are still winners in my book (however more expensive).
I hated this Oolong. It was very weak, to the point of being tasteless, I left the leaves in to steep for a good long time, but it didn't help. I actually threw the sample tin away. Go for Oolong #8 or #40.
This is my favorite tea (so far) from Adagio. It's very smooth. I find it a great replacement for morning coffee.
Interesting taste that I found similar to oolong #8, but with a strong green tea flavor. A nice afternoon tea.
Maye it was the batch, but to me, this tasted rather too much like burned plastic.
A wonderful oolong--great clarity and very smooth.
Lovely fragrant tea. It is currently my favorite evening cup with a little honey of course.
Phenomenal! Subtly floral (almost like gardenia?), and incredibly smooth. What a great surprise - now this tea is one of my favorites!
A nice mild tea - closer to the green spectrum of oolong. The floral sweetness of both the aroma and the flavor are pleasant. It can be brewed two or three times with no loss of flavor.
Definitely has its own distinct flavor. I wasn't really sure I was that into it at first...but it has since become my favorite! Don't give up on this one early; it grows on you.
This tea is going to give subtle fruity and light vegetal flavors. The best part is that I've infused the same leaves 6 times and each steep brings the different complex flavors out
This is by far my favorite oolong tea. The taste reminds me of ali shan but with a smooter after taste.
I like my oolongs to taste somewhere between a green and a black, but this one leaned a bit too far to the green side of the spectrum. Pretty mild, but not bad -- just not what I was expecting.
Wow, I love this tea. It has become my new favorite overall tea. The tea leaves being in little balls makes it a very economical tea; it took me a while to learn to not put in too much leaves. They open up into full leaves when steeped, created a large volume of leaves. High quality leaves you can easily get 3-4 steep out of. The smell is not so great, I think, but the taste is very nice. Mild, not strong, not even the slightest bit of bitter taste. I am impressed.
One of my favorite oolongs. delicate flavor, just right.
the best oolong I've had. The taste is great for over 4 infusions.
Love it!! One of my fave oolongs...really got me interested in oolongs more.
Mild and slighty sweet. Good everyday tea. Similar to ali shan.
I thought this was a really good tea and do recommend it.
Very good everyday tea. It does have a floral taste to it, but I find it to be subtle.
I love this tea! It has a sweet taste in addition to the green tea taste. This may become one of my frequent purchase teas.
My favorite oolong tea so far. Big floral taste but light at the same time.
For the price compared to oolong #40, his is a very good tea. It reminds me of a chinese resturant I always used to go to
I blame myself for not fully reading the description before purchasing, but I am very disappointed with this tea. It's a light floral green tea which is exactly what I am *not* looking for when going with an oolong. I have a feeling this 10oz tin is going to be with me for a long time.
Great value, very drinkable. This has quickly become my standard tea.
This seemed like the typical tea that you would get at a Chinese restaurant. I pretty much just got it because I wanted to see if the leaves would get bigger, as previous reviews suggested. They did, I was pleased.
A bit milder than I expected. Good aroma. Very nice, but not overpowering floral character.
This tea is a real hit with me and my coworkers. It has a floral scent that comes through in the flavor. This one can be steeped several times and is a great value.
This is my favorite oolong so far. The price is incredibly reasonable. This tea has a honey-like aroma and a very smooth flavor. There is enough hint of tannins to give it body, but it's nothing even remotely approaching bitter, even after a long steep. Good for two brews, so you certainly get your money's worth!
This is a standard oolong, smooth, not bitter and easy to drink.
This is a very smooth and tasty oolong. I like the after taste of this tea. It also seems more flavorfull at room temperature.
I liked it, but found myself thinking it was a little 'woody', so to speak.
I did not take to this,. Did not taste like your typical oolong to me.
This a good oolong for re-steeping. It is best prepared gung-fu style since the leaves open slowly.
A delicious greener oolong... my favorite oolong from Adagio so far. Excellent aroma, nice buttery greenish flavor.
A great introduction to jade oolongs. Lots of fruit and floral notes, with a nice creaminess that rounds out the mouthfeel. Good for at least two infusions.
