Here I am starting the day with a big bang that is this tea. I feel kind of like an idiot for not having ordered more of it (what I have is just a sample from the Shang Tea sampler), but then I got an ounce of their other black (or, as they prefer to put it, red) tea, so it’s all good. Next time I am totally getting a bunch of this.
BECAUSE it is sooo good and it reminds me of jasmine black tea but without the weird bitterness that can creep in sometimes with jasmine, plus there’s some orange-citrus-sweet lingering note in there. That of course is the tangerine part. Good stuff.
I’m bumping the rating up a bit because 89 from before didn’t do this any justice.

This sounds lovely! I just peeked at their website, & I love the beautiful photos there.
Yeah, their teas are really wonderful… I still have a LOT of them to try and I’m looking forward to it :)
I’m thinking I’ll have to give their sampler a try :)
It’s a pretty cool sampler! I believe there’s 10 sachets in there and each one has 2 servings in it (If you consider a teaspoon of dry leaf per 8 oz. of water a serving). Their teas are very good quality, so you can resteep them at least 3 times. At least I can say that about their red teas, as I haven’t tried the others yet.
Cool! Now insult eyed some spending money, lol
