This is a fabulous oolong. It is very fragrant dry, and it lasts 5-6 steeps for me. It is floral and flavorful and green and simply tasty. I would recommend it to anyone!

This is the best pu-erh I have tried so far. It is very easy to drink, stands up to what feels like unlimited steepings, and has a sweetness that most other pu-erhs seem to lack. Will absolutely be repurchasing!!

I enjoy the taste of this. It is earthy and sort of resembles black tea. I prefer it steeped like crazy, 15+ minutes is best. I drink it when I feel crampy to help extend the life of any advil or pain medication I might be taking and it works well!

I enjoyed drinking this very much – it was earthy but mild, and I was surprised that the flavor didn’t weaken with multiple steeps. It didn’t really smell like much in the bag. Definitely a treat!

I really enjoyed drinking this. It didn’t remind me at all of the pu-erhs I have tried in the past, which all had a much more pungent flavor and a bit of fishy flavor in some of the first steepings. This was much sweeter, with no fish to be found!

drank White Peony by Tea Setter

I really enjoyed this tea, though I would not say it is the best white I have ever tasted. It does hold up well to many steepings when brewed as directed, and each was delicious. They were very light and sweet as a whole, with no additives.

The berry and hazelnut are very distinct here, which is nice! It sets the flavor apart from a typical fruity blend. There is a bit of a sweetness to it as well which worked nicely. I highly recommend this to people who like fruity teas, but this one happens to not rock my world a ton, even though it seems like it should.

drank Earl Grey Creme by Teavana

This is the best earl grey I have ever had. I am not a fan of most others, as it is very light on the bergamot. I don’t taste the creamy notes specifically, but I imagine it smooths out the bergamot for me. Normally, bergamot makes it taste almost soapy it is so sharply citrus. This was wonderful!

drank Rooibos Caramel by Adagio Teas

There is a very good sugary feel to this, and a distinctive caramel flavor. This is best hot, with a bit of milk. However, it is likely a tea many brands would do just as well.
