GABA Oolong Organic

£2.75

Oxidised in a nitrogen rich environment, this oolong is high in GABA, a chemical messenger that lowers stress, improves sleep and reduces anxiety! GABA teas must have at least 150mg per 100g of tea, that’s at least 25 times more than in traditional teas! Expect an amber liquor, spicy with notes of chestnuts, sour cherries and chocolate balanced with a caramel sweetness. This tea is perfect for a moment of calm after a busy day.

So confusing!

I fail to identify the tasting note flavours in most foods and drinks but not with this tea.

The dried leaves smell exactly like chestnuts. The tea itself tastes of dark chocolate but probably tastes like milk chocolate to people who take milk. My tongue did not know what to make of it at all! I kept taking another sip, and another, to try and pick up the promised sour cherries but, sadly, because Black Forest Gateau is my favourite cake, it was to no avail. My pathetic tastebuds could only taste the dark chocolate. Maybe next time!

I imagine this would suit being paired with Beef Wellington.

Wonderful flavour

A beautiful tea with a wonderful flavour. I enjoy mine with milk and my daughter loves hers without or with a touch of oat milk. Relaxing and delicious.

Time to unwind

A gentle and relaxing brew, perfect for a lazy Sunday afternoon. I am going to experiment with making a strong brew, mixing it with apple juice and making ice lollies.

lovely tea

I came upon Taiwanese GABA oolong tea in a local cafe, did not know about its existence prior, and its purported benefit as a sleep aid. This GABA oolong is from Anhui, China, made using the Taiwanese technique. I tried it alongside the GABA green tea from Japan, to see if they can substitute for reishi mushroom tea as sleep aid. So far this has been holding up, perhaps a bit better than the GABA green tea.
This tea has a lovely aroma, and makes a very enjoyable evening drink.
It would be great if Team Tea displays more details about the tea, such as their origins, on the product pages, although Valerie replied quite promptly upon request.
