TIAN HU SHAN Premium Oolong Tea Loose Leaf 14 Ounce (400g)

Soon as this arrived, I opened up the Red Container this came in, took a Deep Inhale to get the Aroma, and was very pleased with it. I got my Distilled Water heated up to +195F in my Microprocessor Controlled, Calibrated Tea Kettle, added it to the Oolong Tea Leaves, and allowed to Steep for 3 minutes. After letting it cool down a bit, the color was a Medium Brown, and the Aroma had Earthy Tones, but the best part was the TASTE... it was not too strong, not too weak, and NO BITTERNESS (at all)... it was just right, at the GOLDILOCKS State, and I FELL IN LOVE with it!!! This is a Truly Wonderful Oolong Tea, of Great Value for the Cost/Performance Ratio, and I am VERY PLEASED. This TIAN HU SHAN Premium Oolong Tea Loose Leaf 14 Ounce (400g) is grown in Mainland China, at the 800-meter level altitude (about +2,500ft), so there's no Insects up there, and doesn't require using Pesticides. I consider this a "High Mountain Grown Tea", with all the benefits of that Altitude. It's not THE BEST, but for the Price, it PUNCH'es Way Over It's WEIGHT CLASS!!! This Tea is a Super VALUE price/performance/color/taste. Very Pleased with this Oolong!!! I am now on my 12th GALLON of this TIAN HU SHAN Premium Oolong Tea Loose Leaf, and will be ordering my Next One, very soon. I Love the Metal Container and Plastic Cover Seal, which keeps the Tea FRESH, and Ready to Rock-n-Roll for my next GALLON. I think this is THE BEST Tea you offer, of the four I have tried (still not tried the Pearls, yet, but that one's on my List too!!). This Oolong Tea is, imho, HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. v/r "The TEA Spectator" :o)UPDATE: March 6, 2025 - I've just ordered another one of these, in case the price starts going UP UP and UP into Outter Space, for Political Reasons between America and China, I'll have enough TIAN HU SHAN Premium Oolong Tea Loose Leaf 14 Ounces into 2026. The Tea is so well packed and sealed, that as long as I keep it in a Cool, Dry, Dark place, it should be just fine. Let's hope and pray for Peace and Prosperity for ALL, and continue to enjoy drinking this wonderful China Oolong Tea. v/r, The Tea Spectator ;o)

Good value. There seem to be 2 types of oolong tea. One is a kind of bark type tea that i love thats usually low priced and low quality and the other is a delicate almost green brown tea. This one is the bark type however instead of the usual low quality its extremely high quality. This Chinese company is one of the few to understand Americans who love Chinese culture. Im thrilled to have the bark flavor with delicate leaves. Additionally it seems they put in more tea than we pay for. Great value! Too bad they dont make smokey or charcoal tea. The tin is nice but needs a wider opening because its hard to get the tea

Absolutely love the taste of this tea! Smells amazing. Container is beautiful! It comes secured to keep freshness in with a plastic cap. Definitely recommend it. I also gifted it to a friend who collects tea cups and containers. This metal box is beautiful but the tea is really good.

Do not use too much of this per teapot or you will think you are drinking something else as the smell and taste will be too strong. Using the right amount, for me, about 1 teaspoon gives much better results and tastes a lot like restaurant tea. They give you a good amount, I found it was full to the top and sealed fairly well. Good quality tea, the tea does not have a refreshing smell like others have stated but I don't think it is supposed to as it is a natural Oolong tea. Using the right amount will give you a wonderful tasting tea.

This is high quality delicious oolong tea! Make sure to follow the instructions to warm the teapot and rinse the leaves, or else you may get some unwanted bitterness in the brew. I was able to resteep the leaves as well if we were having more than one pot!

Great Tea. This is as good as any Oolong tea I have had at a Chinese restaurant. The canister is huge for how much you use. I regularly use the loose leaf for multiple cups of tea. The canister says you can use the same leaves for 3 or more but I think 2 keeps the flavor the way I like it.Buy and enjoy!

It is great and taste well

EDIT: After posting the review below, I was contacted by the company. They insist the product is of high quality and FDA approved, which may be true. It still troubles me that a prop 65 notice printed on the tin was covered up by a sticker proclaiming the product quality. That sticker could have gone anywhere. But I repeat - I really enjoyed the flavor of this oolong.I enjoyed the flavor of this stuff, but upon encountering a “product quality” sticker placed on the tin I peeled it off to find a prop 65 warning. Same sticker and prop 65 warning on a tin of jasmine from the same brand. A little research suggested it could be for lead and or cadmium. Both of which would have to be in the ground the tea was grown in. Not worth the risk, both went straight to the trash. At least it was cheap.To be fair the prop 65 warning was visible on one of the product images, but I didn’t catch that before ordering.
