I am going to have to have a few more cups of this before I can write too much but my initial impression is yummy! It reminds me a lot of the iron goddess, but not as strong. This might be a great compromise for me.

I opened the package and this smells exactly like my husband’s morning grape fruit juice. I love citrus in tea and so I bought this thinking it would be a good twist to green tea. This did not disappoint. The taste is much more subtle than the smell, but a good subtle. A hint of sweet and the green tea flavor still comes through. This will be a great bedtime tea for me.

This is my second tasting of this tea. The first time I rushed it a bit and didn’t get a chance to fully enjoy it, but right away it hit me as a tea I could drink over and over again. The second try did not change that. I picked up the cup and the first thing I thought was, hmm this taste a little bit like there is cinnamon in here. Other words I would use to describe this tea are, sweet, honey, smooth, buttery.

I may not have used enough leaf for this cup. I am comparing this to the 2 other teas I received from Yezi Tea. This is my least favorite of the 3. A little weak, a little more bitter than the other two. Still a good cup of tea, but if I had to choose I would choose one of the other 2 to buy again. I am comparing to Gao Shan, and Qing Pin.

I am trying this along with 2 other teas I received as a sample from Yezi Tea’s, Gao Shan, and Jin Jun. I would put this slightly above Gao Shan. This is sweet and smooth and delicious.

I haven’t been able to drink a cup of tea in a week. I manged to pick up hand foot and mouth from my daughter and the blisters in my mouth have been angry at any hot or cold liquid. It is freezing outside and to try to warm up a bit I decided to try a hot cup again. I am trying all 3 of my generous samples from Yezi.

This is very yummy. I haven’t done much tasting with straight black so to be able to try 3 right next to each other is really fun. I get a bit of a bitter sweet, chocolatey taste from this one. I would definitely buy this again, and in comparison to the other 2 that I received, Qing Pin and Jin Jun, this ties with Qing Pin.

I have had this a few times this week. My supply is almost gone. With the holidays coming up I think this is one I will have to replace. I tried using both honey and rock sugar. I really like the rock sugar. This is just so warming and comforting. I am excited to try a few other chai’s in comparison, but this is really good. I am getting a lot of cardamom today.

I finished this one off last week. Good blend. I drank this straight and with milk and sugar. I could never pin point the flavors, but it was always really enjoyable. I would buy again.

I have been enjoying this as my afternoon tea this week. The smell is wonderful. It smells like coffee as hinted to by the name. The taste is somewhat malty, somewhat coffee and somewhat chocolate. I made the mistake of drinking this following one of my favorite flavored Asam teas. This doesn’t do so well in comparison, but it is still enjoyable.
