I’m just going to copy and paste, as pretty much my review would be the same throughout.

“I’ve debated a long time about writing this review. I got sent these teas by DCS, because they weren’t to her liking, and I then passed it on as it wasn’t to my liking. This is perhaps the best thing about Steepster. The community.”

So, 10 is the grade I would rank for standard tea bag tea. I would rank this tea below that. Probably around a 9. I’m holding off on ranking as I would like to see some more reviews of this tea before I leave such a drastic mark.

Not worth the price they are charging, this is a perfectly fine FF darjeeling, just lacks really distinction.

Really vegetal…and fishy. I feel like I’m eating the seaweed wraps off of sushi.

A nice creamy vanilla taste. With a faint hint of flowers..maybe Jasmine? Or honeysuckle.

As Sil said earlier, very floral! I enjoy flowers though, so this was a pleasant cup of tea for me. Think frangepelia/gardenia. Tropical fragrant flowers on a soft/sweet green base. Maybe a hint of pineapple too.

Nice floral aroma with a complex tea. Spinach and walnut aroma as it brews, and I taste spring onions, with a honey passionfruit sweetness.

Not as complex as I would like, but this is a good tea, and a good example of some oolongs.

haha it is always dangerous to read what other people think as you drink a tea. I am totally getting the applewood smoke!

This one is interesting. Though I’m not really that satisfied with it. Aromas were earthy, but with some faint fishy aroma, and a fairly dominant camphor. I also got some faint fruity tones of cactus (opuntias).

Taste is quite soft. Not as complex as I was hoping, but shous are my least favorite type of pu-erh.

Nice creamy nature to the tea, with a faint hint of nuts. Imagine an oolong and a green tea combined.
