Wuliang Green is an easy brew with notes of white grape and hints of tangy apricot. Quite suitable for gaiwan brewing and long tea sessions.

A fairly light green tea, low in bitterness, with the usual grassy notes. The slight fermentation adds a bit of roundness to the end of it, making the finish a little sweet, with just a bare hint of the sort of forest-floor funkiness of a puerh. Very slightly astringent, but lower temperature brewing takes care of most of that. Pleasant, interesting, not mind-blowing.
Better than a plain green but not as good for me as the black Pu-Erh teas. Love that earthy flavor.
This is fantastic. tastes like peach tea to me. When I first made it, I could have sworn that I made a peach tea, but it is just naturally sweet like that
Very very good tea! I will definitely buy this tea again
tangy apricot taste and smell, very chewy in the mouth
Greens and I just don't get along. There are some that I like but not this one.
This is an excellent tea for gong fu brewing. Flavor keeps evolving through many infusions.
I liked the first flush, but the second flush didn't have that same texture or woodsy scent. It's a very enjoyable first cup though.
I enjoyed this tea. It tastes more like a green tea than any pu-erh that I’ve had. It is very light and sweet with fruity notes. It’s good.
Has that grass smell some green teas have but doesn’t taste grassy
This a a wonderful mellow green tea and no rinse needed. The usual vegetable flavor from green tea is muted and softened to a great cup of tea.
Pu-erhs tend to punch through with flavor for me, probably as a result of their processing method, but this green is both mellow and flavorful. More on the grassy end than the vegetable flavor of greens, I taste a hint of fruit but mostly just a nice mellow green tea.
I tried this for my first attempt at green tea and didn’t like it, too earthy for me. I think I need a touch of flavor. On to another green!
Delicate tea that holds up to multiple steeps and is perfect for gong fu brewing sessions. The leaves are beautiful to watch unfurl and the delicate mildly fruity notes make this a must have in your tea pantry. Sip, sip away!
A very interesting variety of Pu-erh. If you don t like usual Pu-erh tea, it s worth trying this Green Pu-erh, as the flavor is shockingly different. Enough to warrant a completely different class of tea. This one is more on the 'grassy' side rather than the 'earthy' side. @adagioteas
A nice and mild green pu-erh without any bitterness. Definitely worth a try!
great green tea, doesnt have that strong pu-erh aroma.
This is a lovely green tea that doesn't have a grassy aftertaste.
I love every pu-erh I ve ever tried. This one is no exception-- and it s fun to have a green tea version. It feels a bit lighter and brighter than my typical go-to dark pu-erhs. Very tasty. @adagioteas
My first time trying this green pu erh and enjoyed it gong-fu style. During the first sip, I was immediately reminded of the ancient tree astringency I ve experienced with other gushu teas. It was much smoother than many other similar teas that I ve tried. No dusty aroma or taste at all, just clean, raw puerh. A very nice tea. @adagioteas
So... this tea... it s very good, don t get me wrong, but it tastes -exactly- like the smell of instant yeast. As someone who makes bread regularly, it was a very strange sensation. @adagioteas
What an interesting tea. Produced a very pale green-gold cup with just a touch of bitterness (I may have used too much tea. It's shape made it hard to measure). The taste was stronger than a white tea, but lighter than most of the green teas I prefer. This tea doesn't have the 'earthiness' of aged pu-erh.
First time having it. It was good. I'd order it again
A very full flavor with a lot of classic green taste.
This fantastic tea is sweet, light, crisp, and smooth with notes of prominent apricot and subtle honey. One of my favorite traits is the pleasant mouthfeel and lingering aftertaste that keeps me enjoying this tea long after the last sip. The flavor profile is very similar to Master s Ancient Tree Green Puerh, but the Ancient Tree is stronger tasting overall, a bit earthier, and does not have the lingering pleasant sensation. The Ancient tree aftertaste is more pungent and not as enjoyable compared to Wuilang. When Ancient Tree is brewed at half-strength, it comes out even more similar to this Wuliang, but overall drinking Ancient Tree is like taking a bite into the peel of a fuzzy peach, while Wuilang is more like the enjoying the pulp of a juicy apricot. This tea stays strong through at least the fifth brew (I lost track after the 8th) and it is so much more forgiving than fresh green tea, standing up well to different types of water, temperatures, and brew times. I d recommend it for people who like to enjoy the subtle flavors intrinsic to tea leaves but don t like the grassiness or fragility of green tea. This tea also sets up well for tea tastings alongside white puerh or pit-fruit flavored green teas. Some of my favorite green teas like White Monkey and Wenshan Mist have more complex flavor profiles and a bit more crispness, so I m not throwing out all my other greens in favor of this just yet, but considering its versatility and pleasantness, this one is moving up rapidly in my estimation. And this might be a temporary pro while the tea is new, but the cost of a sample is among the lowest on the site, and currently cheaper per cup than buying larger quantities of this Wuliang. @adagioteas
Mild green tea tast. Brewed nicely. One of the few greens that I found I could not overbrew.
I'm not a big green tea fan, but I am a pu-erh fan. I found this tea more enjoyable than most green teas. Less grassy than many green teas, with a little woodiness (for lack of a better work) from the pu-erh. Not sure that I noticed any distinguishable fruity flavors, but it is mellow.
The Wiliamson Green is ok. Not really what I think of for Pu-Erh.
I have grown to love this tea. I was never a fan of green teas, but I thought I would try some of these from Adagio, and I am pleased to find they don't have to taste like warm pond water after all. This one really stretched my conception of what tea should be at first, and I kind of hated it, but after a few weeks it has really grown on me, and I find myself reaching for it quite often. It has a very unusual fermented tartness with a savory finish, balanced with a deep, complex 'tea ness' in the middle.
Given that it was labeled as a Pu-erh this was substantially lower caffeine than I hoped. It still tasted good though.
As others have noted very subtle flavor in general particularly the first steep. Fruity flavors, definitely white grape flavors present and a pleasant astringency that makes it very refreshing. Did manage to get some stronger flavors by using more tea, hard to use a teaspoon because the leaves are so big, a scale is probably more accurate. Good potential daily drinker if you like green tea flavors
I like this a lot. I don't have much experience with Pu-Erhs to compare it to, but it's a nice, earthy flavor and can yield multiple steeps.
I brewed this tea overnight in the fridge. It's quite...odd, but (according to someone who tried it along with me) tastes like how pu-erh teas all taste. It was not something I'd ever had anything similar to before. It wasn't bad, just kind of strange, and probably not for me.
Wow! I had trouble getting this out of my sample bag with my teaspoon due to the long wispy leaves. They reminded me of spider legs. The tea is more on the green side than the pu-erh side in terms of taste. It is vegetal but not overwhelmingly vegetal with a hint of sweetness. No bitterness noted like in some green teas. Definitely good for multiple infusions for these spider legs.😉
This tea is different but I love it. Definitely more green then pu erh
I do know if I need to use more tea or brew longer but it doesn’t have much flavor for me.
Buttery smooth with a mild vegetal flavor. Becomes more noticeable as it cools.
Multiple brews were a must for this delightful green Pu-Erh. Slight fruit notes of pear were present in the first steep with a bit of vegetal essence in the second cup. Pleasant astringency. No bitterness or grassiness. There was no fishy flavor so no rinsing is needed. This is going on my 'order more' list. I used 5 grams with 16 ounces of water.
What an interesting, mellow tea! I'm not generally a green tea fan, but I enjoy pu'erh teas so wanted to try this one. So glad I did! The leaves are long and thin. Lovely aroma that reminded me of fall leaves greeted my nose as I opened the bag. I weighed out 3 grams of tea -- the long length of the dried leaves made it too hard to measure with a measuring spoon. And a tea scale is just more accurate. 3 grams for 8 oz makes a great cup of tea every time! I like a bit stronger taste when it comes to tea, so I brewed 180F for 4 minutes. OMG! This tea is SO good! Mellow, light slightly vegetal but not grassy tea -- with a bit of a sweet, fruity taste in the background. Very comforting cup of tea! Multiple fusions possible with this one! I got 3 before having to add more tea. Love it!
Long, thin and twisty black silver-tipped threads of tea leaves were noted in the pouch.
Since there were no unpleasant aromas noted, no hot rinse was needed. I used three grams of tea for a 12 ounce steep. I steeped at 175°F ‘cause I don’t have a 180 button on my kettle. I pulled the steep at three minutes, when no change in color depth was noted. Flat green leaves with dark brown pu’erh fermentation edges opened up after brewing.
When hot, a light yellow-green color was noted in my mug. Mild vegetal flavors with smooth tastes were noted. There was no bitterness.
When warm, moderate and pleasant vegetal flavors were noted. Smooth and buttery flavors were mild.
I’ve tasted other green pu’erhs, but nothing as nice as this one. It had a very pleasant umami mouthfeel of flavors towards the finish that hung in my mouth with mysterious zings for quite some time! Finishes with a nice astringency similar to that of a finer white wine. This one is the real deal!! Second steep for one minute and 30 seconds was even more flavorful. (3g tea for 12oz water, no hot rinse, 1st steep for 3 mins / 2nd & subsequent steeps for 1.5 mins @ 175ºF, no additions, 2+ infusions)
