Ooooh Darjeeling Customer Reviews

Very rare oolong from Singbulli Estate, Darjeeling, India. Muscat grape and apricot pit aroma (also the mark of fine Darjeeling black teas). Dried fruit flavor, lingering floral notes. A lesson in 'terroir': the place where the tea is grown.

★★★★★

This tea was nothing short of wonderful. The taste was an interesting mix of both oolong and Darjeeling. It was earthy and sweet with fruity notes of apricot along with a subtle muscat taste that I would expect from a typical Darjeeling. The leaves were also a lot of fun to play with after steeping.

Really enjoying this tea and will buy it again and again. With a toasty, mellow flavor, it's one of the few I've tried that I enjoy as much without milk and sugar, as with.

★★★★☆

I'm new to darjeeling but this feels like a good start! A very fresh, mild, but flavorful tea. Fruity but not in a terribly sweet way.

★★★★★

Tis is a good morning tea for a wake me up, but it doesn't wire me up. This is becoming one I reach for frequently. With just a few drops of liquid stevia extract its a perfect blend.

This is a delicate black tea with delightful flavor. It's a nice contrast to bolder tea like Earl Grey.

★★★★★

Loved it from the first moment I tried it. You won't be disappointed.

★★★★★

Fantastic tea. Great price for an Oolong, and the flavor can't be beat. On a whim I tried it iced and was seriously impressed. If there is only one tea I can take with me it's this one. One of the few teas I can drink all day long, everyday.

The taste of this tea is really good. The smell when you open it up is just amazing.

★★★★☆

I'm not sure what I was expecting from this tea, but I suspect I'll grow to love it in future brews. It's very interesting, and smells amazing. I recommend sampling it first.

A smoother version of yunnan, still a little earthy in taste. Will try steeping a little less next time with a little less tea. The directions on the package said 2 tsp./cup.

In a word, fantastic. Floral and perfumy but not overpowering. One of the few teas I like without sweetener as well as with.

A great staple oolong (and the name is even a pun, how delightful is that!). Absolutely perfect when I want a tea to perk me up (but not leave me too wired)

★★★★★

I don't have much experience with this type of tea, and wasn't sure what I was getting into - I just saw that it had great ratings. Well, I'm glad I bought a sample bag and tried it out. It's amazing, with a robust and flavorful aroma and taste.

★★★★★

I am in love with this tea! It's perfect for re-steeping and even better mixed with an herbal. Will be buying more.

Nothing special about this in my opinion. One of two oolongs I've tried, but I definitely prefer the jade variety. Still a nice, drinkable tea.

An amazing oolong tea with a velvety and full-bodied flavor. I enjoy this more than most black teas. I usually don't like cold oolong but I tried this one cold (after having it hot) just for the hell of it and it was simply sublime. So rich. So smooth. So bold.

★★★★★

This has become my favorite tea. I have many teas to choose from and I reach for this one a lot! It's taste, the smell, everything about this tea is YUM.

★★★★★

I loved this one! I admit I don't usually attempt multiple infusions as I alternate coffee and tea and don't want wet tea leaves sitting around getting funky, I tried with this one and am convinced!

★★★★★

Simple and delicious. I can see this becoming a regular.

★★★★★

This is wonderful. Absolutely delicious and lightly sweet.

★★★★★

What a wonderful tea to wake up to in the morning. Loving it!

★★★★☆

A very nice breakfast tea! It has a nice, pleasant flavor and isn't bitter at all.

★★★★★

What a great tea! A really nice and full flavor, easily one of my favorite teas.

★★★★★

A pretty simple oolong, with a cute name and not quite as strong as ones I've had in the past, which were nearly like dark black teas.

★★★★★

I was really skeptical about this tea, I'm not quite sure why but it is WONDERFUL. Full bodied and smooth and simply delicious! I will definitely repurchase!

★★★★★

Love this. Has a nice toasty/nutty flavor for me.

★★★★☆

I was afraid this would be too light in flavor. It's light, but in a good way. I am a fan of strong black teas, so this is a bit of a departure. Maybe a teaspoon and a half of sugar is enough to flavor the tea and highlight the Muscat tones.

★★★★☆

This is a good morning tea for me. Just subtle floral flavors with a hint of fruit.

★★★★☆

This is the first darjeeling I've ever tried, and it's not my favorite tea but I do enjoy it occasionally. The best part is when I'm in the mood for this tea I can make several cups just from one teaspoon.

★★★★★

The oolong is what got me started with them! A great tea that I would definitely recommend.

★★★★★

I used this as a base to make Thai Iced Tea and it worked wonderfully!

★★★★★

I absolutely love Darjeelings, but I'd never tried an oolong before this. I have to say, I am a fan, but I didn't even get to drink much of it because my boyfriend used the majority of my sample! I know what to get him for his birthday now...

this is the first darjeeling tea i've ever tried and i really like it! it took me a minute to get used to the flavor, but once i got over it being different from what i'm used to, i loved it. it's great for multiple infusions, too!

★★★★★

I originally bought this as a gift for a friend (here's hoping she doesn't see this before I give it to her!). She said it was her favorite tea, so it must be pretty delicious!
[Edit] I have since tried it myself... and I am completely in love! It's one of my favorite teas as well!

★★★★★

Very pleasant cup of tea. The first loose leaf oolong I have ever tried, and I was very impressed. I was able to get 3 infusions out of 1.3g of this tea, the third cup was a little weaker/flatter but the first two were great! Would definitely purchase again!

Update: Tried again and this time used 2 grams and steeped for 3 minutes, flavor is very nice, I think ideally for a 6oz cup of this tea one would need to use between 2.4g and 3.0g to get a full bodied flavor. Interesting fruity-floral flavor! Still the only loose-leaf oolong I have tried but I'm definitely interested in trying more!

My absolute favorite tea. It's just the perfect blend of flavors. Lovely and dark.

★★★★☆

Very good, love that I can get a number of steeps from it.

I'm not a tea master by any definition of the word, but I have tried other oolong teas before. I much prefer this one, not very strong tasting but with each sip I can distinguish new flavors, and it even lasts for multiple re-steepings. I will likely order again!

Great for several infusions. 2nd and 3rd infusions seem to have a more mellow, enjoyable taste than the first.

★★★★★

This is a very sophisticated, subtly sweet tea. I can see why they refer to darjeeling as 'the champaign of teas' as this really has a sparkling personality.

★★★★☆

One of my preferred Adagio Oolong varieties at the present time. It possesses the fruitiness of a Darjeeling and nuttiness of an Oolong. I also combined it in a 2:1 ratio with some of the Adagio Dewy Cherry herbal blend and found the combination of flavors pleasing.

★★★★☆

Very light and soothing, good for a nightly tea. You have to be a fan of green teas or oolong in order to favor this one. But it still caught the eye of some of my friends who tried it for the first time.

★★★★★

Smooooooth tea with layers of flavor. Makes an excellent cup to drink during the night.

★★★★★

. A clean taste and not bitter. One of my faNice earthy taste without being too grassy or bark-likevorites

Not very familiar with teas but I did like the roasted flavor this one had. Steeped 3 times and by third cup, the flavor was just right for me.

This is such a great tea! It was a very nice tea for someone who hasn't had oolong tea before, I'll definitely order this again.

★★★★☆

Great iced tea! I prefer Oolong #8, but this is a nice alternative.

★★★★★

I really enjoyed this oolong. I just got a sampler but will be getting more later.

★★★★☆

Not the most amazing Darjeeling I've ever had but a very good tea all the same!

This tea was OK but I found it a little too bland for my taste. I liked it better once I added peppermint to it.
