Really helpful attendant, cheaper prices than local (steepers), and a wide selection of quality teas!

I bought two type but Osmanthus Oolong 桂花烏龍 is not as was told that each tea leave rolled into ball shape, after open, the bag contains only scattered crashed small pieces. Perhaps due to transportation or stored improperly as the package is in paper instead of metal can. Very disappointment. The other bag of Osmanthus Green Tea 桂花龍井 is in good shape as leaves are in ball shape and quality is good for its price.

Absolutely love this place! The owner was so kind and friendly and really helped to educate someone who wants to get into the art of enjoying tea. I've always wanted to try doing my own gongfucha, and having a nice place like this is absolutely amazing. I bought the Red Tea, Da Hong Pao, and Alishan Oolong. I also decided to get myself my own set with teacups, teapot, and Gaiwan. I just performed the ceremony myself with my siblings and as we tried each of the teas recommended to us, the experience only got better and better. I would highly recommend the Alishan Oolong - all the sayings about its refined, sweet aromas and flavors are true. I'll be coming to this store far more often to get some more loose leaf teas, and a business like this deserves all the support it can get!

The owner is super friendly and very knowledgeable! They have a great assortment of high quality imported teas (some can be a little pricey). I’m glad it managed to survive COVID, and I will be returning soon!

I like their Teas very much! The quality, taste and price! Red tea Dragonfly black tea is very mellow and nourishes the stomach, and it can also lose weight! Gaba Tea has very little caffeine, and the taste is relatively light, suitable for drinking in the afternoon. Oriental beauty tea is also very good!

I was looking for high quality green tea and it is hard to find in US. This store sells loose green tea and I thought it could be better than other stores. But it turns out that the quality is very bad too. What they call "best green tea" (极品绿茶）is about the same as the worst green tea in Chinese tea shops.

I am really addicted to the teas they are selling. I drink 3 to 4 cups per day which makes me in shape. During lock down time, I eat more and exercise less, because I drink tea, I am not gaining too much weight! LOL! It does help to dissole the fat in our body! I liked the Organic Godden Red tea very much. Good combination taste, very warm and soothing, not too strong, not too mild either. A few loose tea leaves make the perfect taste with 0 calories. I makes me want to drink it all day long. It has very little caffeine, so it won't affect my sleep. I really recommend this during pandemic time. I also liked their Organic Gaba Tea which contains the least caffeine. Oriental Beauty is also a good choice. Their price is very reasonable. This is the best tea store I have ever found in bay area. Red tea is also good for our stomach.

Great variety of teas. The cashier was super helpful.
I am very disappointed in the oolong tea I got a couple days ago. After giving this place 4 star on my last review. I have to downgrade this place after testing out the dayuling and fuso premium oolong teas I don't want to throw accusations around but let's just say that it is not as good as the ones I have been getting directly from Taiwan for the last 10yrs... I get faint flavor and taste but it was not as intense. You can attest to lot to lot variation or other variables. But let's just say this is like a light version of what I normally get.. The dayuling is also similar. I get the smell and can taste the flavors only in the first or 2nd round. Again, the flavor is not as intense and after 3-4 brews, it's all gone... The ones I get directly from Taiwan is way more intense. I would get at least 4 brews and up to 6 decent brews. I guess u get what u pay for... I was really surprised that they charge the same for all three premium oolong teas. The fuso lishan is usually the most expensive, around 1600NT per 150g. The dayuling is 1200NT per 150g. Here they are the same price. $30USD per 0.25 lb. 30USD = 900NT. And 0.25lb = 115g Working out the math This place sells the premium teas at 7.8NT/g In Taiwan, the fuso is 10.66NT/g The dayuling is 8NT/g You get what you pay for.... I definitely will not be getting premium oolong from this place again... I still recommend this place for low end teas. The Jasmine and black teas are good...

We were very excited to find this wonderful tea shop in Fremont. We were helped by Helen who gave us a great education about tea. She was an excellent salesperson, I ended up buying a lot more tea than I was planning to buy! We tried many different types of Taiwanese tea in the store. My favorite was the high grade Formosa bug bitten oolong. I was so impressed to how high the quality was given the low prices. I am used to paying double the price when I buy online for the same quality that I tasted at the store. I am really excited to visit again and buy more tea, thank you Helen!
