The Best Teas in the World: Part Three

by Hank Friedman

The Best Oolongs Ever

In the past year, my pursuit of the best teas has resulted in some great successes. I've discovered two new great websites with incredible teas.

Two of these companies: Norbu Tea and T-oolongtea, have now closed.

I recently visited one of my old favorites, J-tea.

I ordered more of the Da Yu Ling tea I recommended in section two of this article, and Joshua sent me a free sample of another oolong that was so fabulous, I immediately ordered more. It's called Ming Jian Spring 09 and it's available about 2/3rds of the way down the page. The taste and experience of this tea is incredibly worthwhile.

A final note: readers of this column will often hear me say that "this is the best tea", so I did an experiment. I tried some of the earlier teas to see if the quality of the later teas I've been finding is better, and in fact it is. I've been finding better and better teas as my search has continued, and the teas on this page are clearly the very best.

In October 2012, I have added a new Part Four of this article here. Enjoy!
