Look, is this fancy? Maybe not. Yeah I got it on Amazon overnight and didn’t pay $140 to ship it here over 3 weeks from China, so what! (Wait so why am I doing that with puerh…) Super smooth, no bitterness or astringency. Rather sweet without any sugar, wrapped in a toasty roasted flavor that reminds me of when you overcook popcorn and get just a bit of that burnt smell, and maybe a bit of roasted barley. Maybe some oatmeal & maple in there. And on the exhale a hint of…cinnamon toast? Great morning cuppa for the office, and maybe the first thing I’ll offer newbies.

Bought this tea recently with an Amazon order. It has dark black leaves that smell intensely sweet. The tea is roasted in taste but only slightly. I added sugar to this tea so I’m not sure if it tastes without sugar as sweet as it smells but I think so. Overall this was an excellent value. I think I paid less than $9 for three and a half ounces in a nice tea tin. It will probably be one that I finish off rather than see go to waste. I buy too much tea and never get around to selling any so too much of it gets stale.

I steeped this tea one time in a 160z Teavana Glass Perfect Tea Maker with 3 tsp leaf and 190 degree water for three minutes after a 10 second rinse.

Is that the same as Tao Tea Leaf in Toronto, Ontario? The name looks almost the same and I think Tao Tea Leaf sells some on Amazon.

I think The Tao of Tea and Tao Tea Leaf may be two different companies but I’m not sure. Sure way to find out, do separate web searches, see if there are two websites?
