This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars A lovely tea with a smooth, relaxing taste
This shopper rated the product 4 out of 5 stars This is decent Oolong. Not my favorite but many other reviewers really enjoy it. It tastes a little strong to me regardless of steeping time. The description talks about an after taste which I do taste but do not love. I prefer the dragon or milk Oolongs.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars The flavor is so perfect! Medium body and caffeine.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars Delicious, bold, full-bodied oolong tea
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars I love Oolong tea and this one does not disappoint. Soothing & relaxing.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars This tea was quite a surprise! It's mild yet has the most delicious floral flavor. Not over powering just really good. It may be my new favorite!
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars Full body oolong with great flavor.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars I’ve been wanting to try this tea for quite some time, but kept pushing it off for other teas, and I’m so glad I finally tried it! It’s so smooth and slightly crisp, and not quite as nutty-sweet as the double milk oolong. I think next to the peach oolong, this is my favorite of the oolong teas.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars So buttery and delicious and at the end it developed a lovely floral note. This is also definitely Taiwanese tie guan yin oolong! But super delicious. Almost has a movie theater butter flavour at first haha. Great without sugar or with some honey and milk. Yum!
This shopper rated the product 4 out of 5 stars This tea always tastes super special to me. Very flavorful and fresh. One of our favorites!
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars I was trying to get more orchid oolong. Which I love. Unfortunately this manufacturer has discontinued that wonderful tea. They recommended this one as a substitute and it's almost as nice.
This shopper rated the product 4 out of 5 stars Need to experiment with brew times/temperatures.
This shopper rated the product 4 out of 5 stars This is a lovely tea, especially hot, but I am more taken with the "Wuyi Oolong Full-Leaf Tea." I enjoy the dark honey notes in that cup.
This shopper rated the product 4 out of 5 stars This tea is a fairly economical bulk oolong. The taste is mild and pleasant. I drink it all day until 2:00 pm when I switch to herbal.
This shopper rated the product 1 out of 5 stars I had tried the Wuyi Oolong and loved it! So when I finally got the Ti Kuan Yin oolong tea I couldn't wait to try it. The first time I steeped it for about 6 minutes and I couldn't taste anything. I thought maybe I didn't steep it long enough so going forward I would try steeping it anywhere from 10 minutes to half a hour. And guess what? Still no taste, it was like drinking warm water! Everything else I've ordered from The RoT so far has not disappointed me until now. I feel like my money just went down the drain and feel obligated to finish off this tea because the price was not cheap and I don't want to let it go to waste. I don't want to give it to anybody else because what would be the point when you're only going to be drinking warm water. Stick with the Wuyi Oolong!
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars I bought this as a present for a very fastidious tea drinker, and he was wonderfully pleased with it! Thank you for the prompt shipment and delivery!
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars Just got back into the loose leaf tea game. This oolong tea is my favorite tea! So good, so fresh
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars This is a delicious oolong tea with rich, classic oolong flavor. It is the tea Chinese restaurant tea aspires to be but never is.
This shopper rated the product 4 out of 5 stars The taste is totally ok but too subtle for me. This Ti Kwan Yin definitely not quite alike the one I drank in Hong Kong or China - not strong enough. Actually I don't drink water (too boring) but drink tea (hot tea not iced tea) everyday. However if you don't like strong tea this one is good for you. Despite the subtlety, the taste is better than green tea.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars The Republic of Tea's Ti Kuan Yin has quickly risen to the top of my favorite tea list. I had a rather large bag from another vendor, and not wanting to be wasteful, I finished that bag off before trying the TRoT version. My first sip made me wish I wasn't so frugal because I realized this is what I should have been drinking all along. It's nicely floral, but not overwhelmingly so. I steep gongfu style, so I can't comment on the recommended steeping times except to say that even 5 minutes seems a bit excessive for an oolong. That aside, this is the perfect tea. I can (and do!) drink it all day long. The reported health benefits are a plus, but I'd drink this Ti Kuan Yin all day long even if it was horribly unhealthy! Still, I'd love to see this in an organic form for peace of mind.
This shopper rated the product 4 out of 5 stars I'm easing off my dependence on milk in tea, and this helps the transition. The taste is full and not at all bitter. It's sweet enough to drink completely on its own. I suggest the longer brewing times; 7 minutes works for me.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars I drink it at work, after "things" calm down, but it's best in the evening on the back patio.
This shopper rated the product 3 out of 5 stars Tie Guan Yin is my favorite tea (well, now I had to add RoT's own Milk Oolong!) I have had a dozen varieties from China and from Taiwan, in several grades. All have that distinctive floral note, an exotic flower perfume that is persistent, but always subtle. So I was disappointed that this one just lacked that floral note -- it is a good, plain oolong, with a fruity low note and a little bit of brightness. Nothing wrong, but, at least in my limited experience, atypical for Tie Guan Yin.
This shopper rated the product 4 out of 5 stars A really nice tea. It tastes kind of weak, but its pretty smooth and definitely has the slight floral taste. Not a very strong Oolong.
This shopper rated the product 4 out of 5 stars A very lovely tea. I will be ordering it again.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars Sipping on Ti Kuan Yin is like tasting nature in your tea cup. Fantastic taste and fragrance. Also a good choice for beginners as the fragrance while steeping is indicative of the strength of flavor infused in the tea.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars This tea was a Christmas gift for my son. He drinks it daily and tells me it is the bomb.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars leafs are big enough that i do not strain. it is a pure oolong, that is not bitter or sharp like some blacks or cheap oolong. subtle earthy tone with an almost green finish. I drink it alone and sometimes mix it with Mate or green tea. best for the money.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars I drink a lot of tea and Ti Kuan Yin is my favorite Oolong. It is one of my favorite teas in a close tie with Lychee Black Tea. I just ordered another tin today and I'm surprised to see no one has commented on this wonderful fragrant tea. I hope my review inspires more citizens to try it. They will be so happy they did.
