I love how pure and clean the oolong tea is. The tea itself doesn’t lose its aroma after multiple brew, which is a plus point. Great quality of the tea leaves and I enjoy every drop of the tea.

I drink only this oolong. 10 upon 5 stars for this top quality 高山茶. $56 for 100g while I found it in another tea company’s shop for $200. Because of that I wasn’t sure if this was authentic 高山茶, but I tried and this is the real deal. An excellent tea seller, please give your support so that we can continue to have authentic teas at good prices!

I bought this for my dad at the recommendation of my friend. Thank you seller for answering my many questions on email and chat, your service is top quality just like the teas. Just to share, my dad has a chronic lung condition and this tea was recommended by my friend as it improved her father’s lung condition due to smoking significantly. My dad is very fussy but he likes this tea and his scan results are showing significant improvement in his health. I googled but there is no information on this tea relating to lung health. Just sharing so everyone can have this knowledge if they need it.
