No help required - oolongs are wonderful. Upton has a nice selection. Se Chung
is the least expensive, but it is still pretty good stuff - goes very nicely with
food. Try the Formosa Amber Oolong, the Oolong Finest Grade (Formosa),
and the Tie-Guan-Yin Oolong Imperial (China) for other modestly priced
Oolongs that are very good.

For the time being, I have even given up my nice black breakfast teas, like
Yunnans, in favor of Oolong. To twist a famous quote: "I love the smell of
Oolong in the morning."
