I am grading this harshly because of the legacy of the brand and price range. It smells amazing dry—but the steeped flavor is pretty weak. Maybe it’s my preference for strong tea, but I have to double this (2 tsp for 8oz) and superheat the water. I don’t think I should be cooking the leaves to get some flavor out. Call me crazy but something about the flavor seemed artificial. For $50 a canister, I wouldn’t recommend. There are far better teas out there in this price range. This is Chinese grocery store tea quality. I’ve got nothing against grocery store tea, but this is supposed to be a premium tea.
