The Green is an excellent tea. I'm a LongJing consumer, have been for many years. I now enjoy your Zealong Green. I expect to be enjoying your Green for many years to come. When your 2026 teas are available please do keep me informed. I drink green teas for both pleasure and health. I am a Type 2 diabetic and some green teas have tremendous health benefits for me. So I research green teas constantly for those that are tasty as well as beneficial. Zealong Green fits my taste buds just fine and I expect to be a long time consumer. If you hold your current qualities then you will have a continuous customer. So keep up the good work. You have an exceptional tea.
Wow, thank you so much for sharing this, Dale! It really means a great deal to hear your thoughts, especially given your long experience with LongJing and the care you take in researching green teas. I’m so glad Zealong Green has earned a place alongside the teas you’ve enjoyed for many years.
I can assure you that Zealong is deeply committed to maintaining the quality you’re experiencing now - it’s truly the ethos of the entire company. When you’re at the estate, you can actually feel it because it’s woven into everything they do, from their customer care to the way the retail shop is set up, all the way through the high-tea experience. They are genuinely committed to purity and excellence in all things. I feel so grateful to be part of that and to be able to share their beautiful, pure teas here in the United States.
I will absolutely keep you informed when the Spring Flush teas become available. I’m currently working with the estate on our order, and we’re hopeful they’ll arrive in the U.S. in about a month. We’re especially excited, as our team was able to be in New Zealand for this year’s Spring Harvest (their spring is our winter), and it was such an amaizng experience.
Thank you again, Dale, for taking the time to share your experience, and stay tuned for the Spring Harvest teas.
The best green tea and peppermint combination, I love having this tea on weekends to unwind with good book.
Thanks so much, TJ, for taking the time to share this! I couldn’t agree more. I’ve actually never been much of a peppermint tea fan, so when I was at the Zealong estate in New Zealand for a full tea tasting, I went in assuming I probably wouldn’t love Ice Breaker. I was completely surprised - it’s so beautifully balanced and doesn’t have that sharp edge many peppermint teas do. It’s become one of our everyday teas now, especially as an iced-tea with meals. Thanks again for sharing your thoughts, TJ.
The flavor is superior to other teas I have tasted. It has become a favorite. Particularly the oolong tea.
Thank you so much for sharing this, Mihaela. I’m so glad to hear the Aromatic Oolong has become a favorite for you. The Zeaong Oolongs have such depth and complexity- all three are beautiful and yet so unique. Thank you for taking the time to write and share your thoughts - it means so much!
I ordered this tea because I was concerned about the "natural flavors" my usual tea was flavored with. After doing some research to find a healthier option I discovered Zealong. There is definitely a difference. I haven't had a chance to try every tea in the collection, but the ones I have tried have been delicious. They really do have a cleaner and fresher taste. When I look closely at the tea bags they contain actual tea leaves and not bits, pieces, and dust. There is nothing artificial tasting and no aftertaste . I really feel as if I'm drinking a much healthier and tasty option. The taste is so pure that I don't even need sugar so that's another plus. I can highly recommend this tea and will be ordering more once I decide on 2 or 3 of my favorites.
Sharon!! I love reading this because this is exactly why we worked so hard to bring this tea to the U.S. I still remember when we moved back and I was at an event where I had a cup of “organic jasmine tea.” After just a few sips, I ended up with a terrible migraine. Of course, it turned out it contained artificial flavors (“natural flavors”) that I hadn’t noticed beforehand.
Zealong is just such a different tea, and such a different company. They are truly committed to producing the purest cup of tea they can. When your body is sensitive to those things, you really notice it, and, of course, you can taste the difference too! I’m so glad to have you here, and thank you so much for taking the time to write about your experience.
I love the lemon ginger so much! I pretty much drink it all day but after dinner it’s like a soothing spicy warm hug before bed.
Thank you so much for sharing this, Pamela. I love the way you described it - a soothing, spicy warm hug before bed - makes me smile! It is one of those blends that feels BOTH comforting and uplifting! I’m so glad it’s become part of your daily routine, and I truly appreciate you taking the time to write and share your thoughts!
