don't believe the hype, if you haven't had it before
it is awful, in my opinion, and useless |

Despite the opinion of ChinaBoy, I too would like to know the location of said tea. It's been said that it helps with eczema (skin problem) if taken over a long period of time (about a week or so).
Any relevant information would be appreciated. |

sorry, I guess my post might have sounded unhelpful, but really, if you're just interested on the advice of others, I was just trying to give some
wasn't trying to flame or spam or whatever they call it
and really, it IS awful!  |

I don't mind Oolong, it's not that bad. There's a tea shop in Apgujeong, but it's off the main drag.
Get a Korean friend to help with the yellow pages. |

| You can buy it on Gmarket, but it's pretty pricey. |

Oolong tea - when brew slightly, tastes OK. It's when you brew it for a long time that it becomes really strong and thick.
I am in HK right now and see Oolong tea wherever I see a Chinese herbal medicine shop. |

I've seen it in department stores in the foreign food section. I've also seen it at the super markets from time to time.
It would be in Incheon China Town, I think. |
