This tea is ok, it's not bitter but it is so disappointing. I have been searching for a jasmine oolong that I had in a Japanese restaurnat that was so good. This tea is not it. You can't even really smell the jasmine in this tea. The tea I had at the restaurant was a golden color with a slightly sweet taste and aroma of Jasmine. I have bought so many teas trying to find it. The saleslady at the fancy tea shop assured me that this was the tea I have been looking for. NOT! Years ago, I had a manager that came from Japan and she took me to a restaurant which her family and friends frequented and I have not had tea like that since. HELP, I want to enjoy tea like that in my own home.
