This tea is really tasty. It is sweet and floral with a background note that reminds me of cinnamon toast crunch cereal. I’ve only tried it western style so far.

I have the July 2024 harvest. This tea is a rolled oolong with sweet, floral notes. When steeped, beautiful whole leaves unfurl. I like to brew this tea grandpa style at boiling. There is no bitterness or astringency. Nice tea, overall.

When I have a tea guest who has only known the dust and fannings of tea bags, I love to show them the whole, beautiful leaves of a rolled oolong! Isn’t it a joy to exoerience?

This is by far the best Jasmine Silver Needle tea I have had. It has just the right amount of jasmine and notes of sugar cane. I’ve ordered this tea at least 7 times over the past few years and plan to continue ordering it again and again.

The dry leaf aroma is very sweet and fruity. The brewed tea was a lot milder than I expected based on the dry leaf aroma. The taste is mildly fruity and floral with some roasty notes and a slight sweetness.

When I opened the pouch, the dried leaves hit me with the smell of grilled vegetables and sweet pastries. I brewed western style and was quite pleased with the result. This tea has notes of grilled zucchini and umami with a slight hint of apple in the aftertaste. It left me feeling like I had just eaten a satisfying summer meal.

This tea has a thickness to it and feels smooth and silky in my mouth. It has notes of flowers and vanilla, with a lingering powdered sugar like sweetness. Great white tea.

This tea has a savory smokiness and a slight sweetness to it, along with a hint of citrus after I swallow. It took many steeps for the leaves in the tightly compressed coin to fully expand. Overall, nice tea.
