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.

This is a fun tea to watch brew. The liquor looks like a green tea, but the leaf is rolled like a oolong, so you see the unfurling as it brews. The tea is more on the vegetal side, with notes of hay and green grass but more as underlying notes to the overall sweet and clean cup. Very delicate but not floral. This tea is quite appropriate for spring.
This is a not-very-expensive oolong that tastes really classy! A definite ripe floral scent goes along with that smoooooth oolong flavor. I like to hang onto a small bag of this and drink it when I want to treat myself or feel fancy. Maybe not an every day tea, but an every weekend tea!
Great for multiple steeps! Has a sort of earthy/floral taste to it and I would reccomend to anyone who is a particular fan of oolongs
truly one of the best oolongs i’ve ever had, feels like i woke up inside of an orchid
I really enjoyed this. It is very smooth and easy to drink, not bitter at all.
Earthy flavor I quite enjoyed this! But wont be ordering it again
I love me a good oolong and this was delicate and well-balanced. The little green balls unfurled into lovely wide tea leaves as the cup took on a delicate green hue. Delicious, refreshing, and uplifting!
Smooth, well balanced and very enjoyable. I would highly recommend this tea.
This is a good tea. I didn't find it to be exceptional and I probably will not order it again. But it was everything in the description.
Very nice Oolong tea. Prefer this over golden flower. Very smooth, but can still taste floral tones.
A light, delicate oolong with a floral aroma. Absolutely lovely.
An interesting Oolong tea but not my favorite of oolong. Rather earthy in taste to me.
Love this tea, very calming and delicious! One of my favorite non-black teas
Very good, but if you follow the recommended amount (1 teaspoon) when they are dry and still curled, it will produce a VERY strong (in terms of caffeine) cup of tea. I actually use a 1/2 teaspoon of it dry.
Similar to the Fujian Orchid Oolong. Seems lacking in flavor. Maybe all Oolongs taste like a mild green tea?
This is a very high quality Oolong, this you can tell by how the leaves open up. It is a great after dinner tea, especially after a heavy meal. For a pot we use 2-3 spoons, and the tea gets a fairly intense flavor that can be brewed twice. We really enjoyed the stronger flavor.
I bought this tea to use in a gaiwan set, and it came out perfect!
Jade Oolong is a wonderful tea. It has a delicate, light taste that's very enjoyable. If you're looking for a strong green tea, this isn't it, but if you want a tea that has a subtle green tea taste, this is perfect. It reminds me of the teas that I've had at high end, white table cloth Chinese restaurants .
Exactly the flavor I expected and wanted. It’s smooth, earthy, soothing, I love it.
I am a Jasmine oolong fiend and this is simply better than most in its price glass
Lovely light, floral tea that's a lot like a green.
Love this tea. Nice and light perfect after lunch.
I wanted a oolong tea and the jade name sounded nice im glad i got this tea already on of all my favorite ,love the smell and the taste sunce the fisrt cup
A very lovely, fragrant and floral oolong with a nice creamy mouthfeel. On the milder side. Worth a try!
Beautifully fragrant tea with a very smooth texture.
Not my favorite oolong, but it definitely is great for the price.
Smooth and tasty. Doesnt quite taste like black or green tea. It's hard to describe. Buttery, earthy notes. It's a tea I go for when I'm wanting mellow, reliable flavor. Oh, also good to know these expand a LOT. My individual sized tea infuser (which is 2 inch circumference) gets packed from just a teaspoon after steeping. This tea is good for at least 3 steeps too.
Sweet, floral, smooth, slightly earthy, and super delicious. Would definitely recommend to anyone who likes light, tasty teas. - Also, the fragrance of this tea is DOPE
Never bitter and almost sweet to the taste. Light by most standards but very enjoyable. Personal favorite of mine.
Nice floral fragrance, never bitter, still delicious after five steeps. A wonderful oolong. i brew it for 3 minutes at 175 degrees.
I love this tea! It’s a wonderful tea for regular drinking!
A great tea, sweet and a little bit goes a long way.
Trying out the teabag version this time as it made it easier to use at work, and as great as ever.
Very soft on the tongue. Leaves a lingering smoothness with each sip. The flavor itself is delicate and floral with a hint of a minerals to keep it from being bland. Very nice.
Nice oolong; good taste for the cost, but nothing particularly special.
The taste was subtle and it was a bit too weak for me. It also bothers me when it doesn't color the water enough which might be unimportant but a part of my tea experience lol
This is an excellent blend of the strong earthy notes of a quality oolong, paired with the light and approachable flavors of a gentle green tea. An excellent way to get into Oolongs if you're not familiar with them, and adding a little bit of honey made it taste the way that a walk through a quiet forest by the lake in fall feels.
This is now one of my go-to teas. It almost feels like a palette cleanser. You know how some things you can just tell feel healthier going into your body? This tea is definitely one of them
This oolong has grown on me. The floral notes are mild and not overpowering. (There's a floral aroma, but the flavor is not as pronounced as in many jasmine green teas.) The overall flavor is sweet and smooth. Steeps well in multiple infusions.
Jade Oolong is a clean and delicate tea, with a flavor similar to green tea.
This is my first time trying jade oolong and I enjoyed it
Absolutely fantastic tea. I love watching the leaves unfurl as it seeps.
Additionally, a family member taught me a trick with oolong. "Scent first, taste second."
She suggested I make two cups of coffee with the same leaves. The first time pay attention to the scent the second the flavor.
Well, it worked! The first cup had a beautiful flowering and aeromic oolong scent period then, I put the leaves onto a paper towel, rung them out, and let them dry for 24 hours before making a second cup.
The second cup had less of the oolong scent, but a much more robust and intense flavor period definitely recommended this!
Watching the rolled leaves unfurl is relaxing. I love the light floral almost jasmine aroma. The flavor is mild, sweet and green.
I get this and mix with green jasmine and white jasmine for a nice blend.
Light flavor. I drink oolong tea to help my skin issues (eczema) and mix it with other, flavored teas.
Tasted great! Would recommend with given instructions.
Love! So yummy and regal it makes me so happy drinking this, I feel like a queen.
Pale straw color. Slight floral aroma. Expands around 3x. Minimal flavor. Light astringency. Slightly mineral. 2.5
Light but fragrant and flavorful. Great relaxing cup of tea.
My beloved and I have made this our every day tea. We previously used Gunpowder as our main staple but found it to be somewhat bitter when over-steeped. The Jade Oolong is mildly fragrant with good texture. We do not remove it from the pot when steeping, because it does not become bitter. The flavor changes subtly as the tea continues to steep. We like this aspect of tea drinking.
This isn’t a bad tea, but I honestly wouldn’t recommend it. It tastes almost identical to golden flower tea but has a slightly dryer taste and falls slightly short in comparison. It’s also more expensive than golden flower, so I would definitely buy golden flower instead
