Honestly just a really solid Dong Ding. Tastes about like you expect, but it’s such a reliably good tea!

This is a refreshing alternative to the ordinary Tie Guan Yin! In fact, I think this may replace unroasted Tie Guan Yin on my cup board! Nice consistent flavor with no huge surprises, but very pleasant nonetheless.

Finally, my tea samples came in! Getting down to the nitty-gritty, this tea is really pleasant! Really juicy and floral, and no discernible bitterness. This is definitely going on my “buy again” list!

Really nice and durable cups. No heat to the touch whatsoever and beautifully display the tea liquor.

For a bagged tea, this is pretty good! I also love how readily available in stores it is. If I’m on vacation or out of tea, I can just run to the nearest health store or organic market and this will likely be there!

This was a really pleasant tea, and this means something coming from a person who doesn’t often enjoy straight black tea! I prepared this gong fu style, and it performed very well! A lot of chocolate, but there are some lower notes of nuts and baked goods

This is a really nice and complex tea! Made gong fu style, this tea will really take you on a journey to discover the flavors. Once you think you have it figured out, the next steep brings out even different flavors! Really nice value
