Jin Xuan Oolong Tea in Goldfish Teabag From Charmvilla

 Our Sister’s Thoughts:

Not only am I reviewing a tea but a tea product and concept with this Jin Xuan Oolong Tea in Goldfish Teabag From Charmvilla .  First I will cover the actual tea INSIDE the bag.  The Jin Xuan Oolong Tea inside this cute Goldfish Teabag is a pretty straight forward Oolong.  It’s a no-muss, no-fuss type.  It infuses to a light golden yellow.  The aroma is a weaker milky type smelling oolong.  The taste is a little creamy, a bit green, and a tad roasted.  It’s a fair tasting oolong.

Personally I think the draw of this product is all presentation!  I’ve never seen anything like this before and I’m constantly looking for something different when it comes to ANYTHING Tea.  That is what I found with this product.  This isn’t a product that the average person would buy in bulk.  Each bag goes for about $20.  It would certainly be reserved for the most special of occasions.  I could definitely see these at wedding receptions.  I read somewhere that a lady bought one of these for her elderly great grandmother as a gift, too, and I could see where that would be something to treasure and talk about.

After I learned that each bag goes thru a 16-step process I could see why the cost was higher.  It was more justifiable to me in my head.  This is a gem of a NovelTEA product that is for sure.  Jin Xuan Oolong Tea in Goldfish Teabag From Charmvilla  is something to be treasured and talked about and not simply thrown away once finished with a simple cuppa.  The way it plumps up in the bag and seems to naturally swim around in your cup is totally a sight to see!
