Very pleasant tea, a refreshing taste with a slight sweetness. Good for a few cups, but you will need a teapot or infuser or the delicate flavours will quickly go.

Full leaf tea-- good quality for the price. Would recommend if you want a non-bitter green tea to keep you going throughout the day!

An excellent example of the best this tea can offer. You can get cheaper versions in Chinese shops, but the difference in quality is very noticeable. The one available here is highly floral and very good value. I like to water the pot several times - use a lot of tea and a little water and brew for 30 seconds the first time. You'll be amazed!

This is a very unique tasting tea, very light and refreshing with a good fruit flavors. It's not bitter at all which can usually be the case with gree teas, and a little goes a long way. Would highly recommend this tea and found it to be good value for money.

In my experience Chiswick Tea offers great value and speedy service. 10 out of 10 for the whole shopping experience. The Iron Buddha must be a jewel in their crown. This is a quality tea that is very competitively priced. I think it is a superb Oolong and I shall be reordering it in the near future. Thank you Chiswick Teas

This is an excellent tea similar to the Dragon well tea except it has more earthy and mushrooms overtones. It is the first time I have had oo long variety of tea and I hear it is supposed to be a fat burning tea good for weight loss which is just what I need at this time of year so I shall be drinking it a lot. It is good value as you get 100 g for ten pounds. I recommend this tea as an evening refreshment after dinner.

A great name, sound like one of the movements I do in my Tai Chi classes. This is one of my favorite teas, it has a light delicate taste with a hint of fruitiness, very drinkable all day long and you can get more than one brew from it. I would recommend this to all serious tea drinkers.
