followed Western brewing instructions from Verdant’s website, which says that you can steep 4 times. Smells somewhat of bitter chocolate. Pretty leaves. I don’t get all the flavors, very diluted after first steep. Sorry.

This is a nice tea, but I am not able to pick up on the flavors that tasters are referring to. Maybe its me.

To me, the tea tasted very subtle, almost indiscernible. OK and drinkable, but not enough to keep in stock. Followed steeping time on the package which was longer than the description on steepster.

This is a nice cup of tea -however, for milky creaminess, it doesn’t compare to DavidsTea milk oolong, of which I am a big fan. I am trying other milk oolongs for comparison purposes. This one is more delicate and vegetal than I prefer. I made this Western style according to the directions on the package, which are for a much longer time than the directions given in this blurb on steepster.

This tasted more vegetal than roasty – more of a green oolong than a darker one. It was ok, but milder than I would like even after steeping for 4 minutes. I much prefer the dark premium red robe from Mandala tea. The second steep at 5 minutes was not very flavorful.

Trying to determine what exactly characterizes an Assam tea, having not much experience in that tea category. This is not impressive. I would not buy this again. Hopefully, I will find the definitive Assam that explains why people are such fans of it.

This tea is way too sweet for me. An impulse buy at DavidsTea – I had gone there to replenish my stash of Rose Congou Green. I was disappointed to learn that it was discontinued. The woman who waited on me suggested this Green Seduction. I took a sniff of the tin, which smelled nice, and bought some. I will try steeping for way less time.
