90% of the time I don’t read reviews prior to writing my own, but this was a rather odd tasting for me… even with two notes on this, I stand with AllanK. This is a very hard tea to define in regards to what it taste like or if those taste are ones that I like.
Only the back of the tongue feels the liquid once it goes down, leaving nothing to reexamine on the tip. I tried to leave the liquid at the front for a few seconds, still the back is the only place holding a feel to which I’m not sure if there is a taste. Very thing texture which isn’t an issue, but I just cannot describe the taste. Taste like a piece of grapefruit skin that was underneath a Hot Wheels car for roughly 20 months and then put into the tea as an experiment. So whatever that says to you. I suppose it doesn’t matter if I like it or not, in a fight Repave wins; round 1,2, and 3.

I tried to break off 6.5g of this tea to have a session. I ended up making a large pile of tea dust because the tuo was so compact. I only did about 3 steeps of it before I threw my 6.5g out. It was sooooooo strong, even with flash steeps.
I can’t seem to get a big enough chunk out of this leaf to do another good session with it.
I thought this one was pretty good. The qi was spectacular.
I liked thatonew, and to me it seems vastly superior to Repave. I still got 4 cakes of Repave and would trade them any time with Tei Ji :-)
@bef really? oh i wish i didnt mail my Teji to my IG friend for free….not sure if he’d like that anyway. While it tastes ok but its gut bomb for me.
second that @bef
@boychik yeah I think people either love or hate that Tei Ji tuo.
agreed @bef, this tea is much more special to me than repave (and I’m quite a fan of repave)..the qi on it really is amazing @haveteawilltravel
