For Taiwanese oolongs I like rivers and lakes, floating leaves, mountain stream teas, and wistaria to name a few.
I've found the ones from Floating Leaves (US-based company) to be more mellow/gentle than some teas.
Floating Leaves in Seattle is probably most Americans' #1 pick.
Floating Leaves and Eco Cha are also helpful
If I had to live off tea from one vendor alone, it would be Floating Leaves. I love how they are learning the roasting methods and roast some of their own teas. ... I trust this vendor to only offer good teas, regardless of the price point.

Beautiful and (for me very unique) taste
It was a very good tea, mellow and comforting.
My wife and I drink a LOT of Wuyi teas, and Wuyi blacks like jin Jun mei and zheng shan xiao zhong are in our standard rotation each week.
The only ones I've really liked were Jin Jun Mei's and Feng Qing "Golden Pekoe #100" which is really good imo.
Jin Jun Mei (smells good! tastes good! just not what I, personally, like to nurse for hours on end)
