Review of Chinese Oolong

A darker oolong, somewhat nondescript. No objectionable qualities but overall weak and not very interesting. Not much of the complexity that I expect. I think this one lags behind the quality of Bigelow's flavored teas.
In tea bags of a similar price range, I think Ten Ren offers better oolongs, and they have several to choose from.
