Lucky Eight Vintage Oolong tea!
This is a very good stronger oolong tea, which is especially good for those who love iced tea, who are used to black tea and don't like the pungent grassy taste of green tea. The tea is amber color, with a very nice taste and delicious sweet aftertaste. When you prepare it right, you won't get the bitterness, ususally associated with black tea.
Oolong tea is...

Weight Loss or no Weight Loss ?
I purchased this tea to see if it would excellerate my fat and weight loss by adding this to my regimen. I have not seen any addtional benefits in that regard but it is a tasty tea and well worth the price.

Lucky Eight Vintage Oolong tea!, January 2, 2007
This review is from: All Natural Vintage Wuyi Oolong (Wu Long) Tea - 100 Individually Wrapped Teabags - 7.0 Oz (Misc.)
This is a very good stronger oolong tea, which is especially good for those who love iced tea, who are used to black tea and don't like the pungent grassy taste of green tea. The tea is amber color, with a very nice taste and delicious sweet aftertaste. When you prepare it right, you won't get the bitterness, ususally associated with black tea.
Oolong tea is widely drunk in Fujian China, and Japan. And it becomes more and more popular all around the China. Oolong has so many different other names: Wu-Lung, Wu-long. It is really the same thing, just different pronunciation from different parts of China (Mandarin, Taiwanese, or Cantonese). The premium oolong can be extremely expensive, most for its fragrance, color, sweetness (where to grow or when to pick). It can cost over $200 for just 1 oz (you won't see them out of China though). But if you are really for its healthy benefit, this is an excellent tea.
I usually prepare two cups per tea bags. Here is how I prepare in office (use hot water from hot water in water machine):
First cup: steep the tea bag with in first cup for 2-3 min and save the tea bag (pull it out of water or take it out).
Second cup: you may steep the tea bag as long as you wish. The bitterness is completely gone from the second cup, only the sweetness lingered, with a hint like the sweetness licorie.
For iced oolong tea: I just prepare one cup of oolong tea with 5-7 min steeping time and add ice cube.
I usually use this oolong tea bags in office, so you don't make mess, at home, I have been drinking Wuyi Oolong (Wu Long) Tea loose tea(B000A2KJ7M). Just simply add 1 pinch into cup and add boiling water, or prepare it with a tea pot for the whole family. It is excellent every cup!
I have been drinking oolong tea at least 4-6 cups per day during the past holiday season, with meal or anytime I want to eat snack... To my delight, the pant size is drop one whole size!
The package is a beautiful blue box with a legend story about tea on the back of the package..

Fine Ooolong (Wu Long) Tea, March 15, 2007
This review is from: All Natural Vintage Wuyi Oolong (Wu Long) Tea - 100 Individually Wrapped Teabags - 7.0 Oz (Misc.)
Sometimes I feel like I've been on a diet forever. Of course, I haven't been -- I've been on and off one or another, then back again.
I don't believe any tea is a wonder cure for everything, but I find tea helpful in managing my appetite, my stress levels, and outlook on life. I drink this Oolong tea, really enjoy it, and suspect it helps me feel less hungry in the midafternoon.
I've heard it's rich in anti-oxidants, and promotes the burning of fat. It may well be. I've lost bodyfat and weight -- but, again, I believe the result are due to a combination of factors that includes regular exercise, counting calories, and taking time to for a deep breath and a warm cuppa.

Tastes Great and Has Health Benefits.., May 15, 2007
This review is from: All Natural Vintage Wuyi Oolong (Wu Long) Tea - 100 Individually Wrapped Teabags - 7.0 Oz (Misc.)
The Taste of this tea is very nice. Not grassy like other Teas and has a nutty taste in the background. I enjoy the taste. I drink mostly Green Tea and added this Oolong tea to have more options. I haven't been drinking it long enough to know if it helps with weight loss, but it is very tasty. According to research has antioxident values and that is a great benefit added to a great tasting Tea. ENJOY!!!

Great tea, January 27, 2008
This review is from: All Natural Vintage Wuyi Oolong (Wu Long) Tea - 100 Individually Wrapped Teabags - 7.0 Oz (Misc.)
I've been drinking this tea since last summer. Along with exercise and watching what I eat, I've lost 36 lbs. so far. I find I'm not as hungry between meals when I drink the tea. I drink it iced with splenda.

Taste good!, May 8, 2007
This review is from: All Natural Vintage Wuyi Oolong (Wu Long) Tea - 100 Individually Wrapped Teabags - 7.0 Oz (Misc.)
I drink around 2-3 a day during the work week. I noticed that I am not hungry like I used to be. I forget that I haven't eaten around snack time. I have breakfast then tea, snack (fruit or something small)..if I rememeber, lunch, tea (same thing..if I rememeber) and then dinner. I'm not sure if its a weightloss tea, but i'm sure you'll lose weight if your eating less. I will order this again.

I Prefer Green Tea to these Vintage Oolong Teabags, January 9, 2008
This review is from: All Natural Vintage Wuyi Oolong (Wu Long) Tea - 100 Individually Wrapped Teabags - 7.0 Oz (Misc.)
Arrived promptly in 2 days. The tea was as advertised 100 flo-thru decaffeinated bags at 7 oz. I enjoy drinking green tea and thought I would give Oolong tea a try. I did not think that this tea tasted bad but I prefer green tea over these Oolong teabags. I also ordered "Sea Dyke - Famous Fujian Anxi Golden Oolong (Wulong) Tea - Huangjingui Oolong Loose Leave - High Grade" from piermall. The loose Oolong tea tasted so much better than these teabags. The loose Oolong tea was more fragrant and had a smoother taste and did not need any sweetening. It tasted similar to green tea.
My boyfriend loves earlgrey tea and he did not like the Oolong teabags but he loved the loose Oolong tea.
It says on the back of the box, "Known throughout Asia as one of China's great treasures, tea is second only to water as a world beverage. Tea has been linked with health from the very beginning and is prized for its ability to banish fatigue, stimulate the mental powers and raise the energy level. Recent scientific research reveals that Oolong tea may carry remarkable slimming and health benefits. Oolong is rich in antioxidants called polyphenols, which is found to be associated with weight loss. Another important constituent is epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), which has been extensively studied as a potential treatment for a variety of diseases, including cancer. Epidemiological data have suggested that EGCG may provide protective effects against hormone related cancers, namely breast or prostate cancer. *These statements have not been evaluated by FDA. This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease."

Bland and no signs of health benefits, November 7, 2007
This review is from: All Natural Vintage Wuyi Oolong (Wu Long) Tea - 100 Individually Wrapped Teabags - 7.0 Oz (Misc.)
Company shipping the tea very fast. Fair prices. But the tea itself, just doesn't so it for me. Very bland and I see no evidence of any health benefits, namely the weight loss effects. If you want tea that tastes good...try something else.
