nice shen
i love it!
complex taste, one of the best shengs ive tried.
Gostei mesmo muito deste chá.
ce thé est très délicat, avec un note plus verte que les pu erh que je consomme habituellement. très satisfaisant au quotidien
Good quality
Good starting point for Pu Erh and I decided to drink it rather than letting it age. It is not as complex as other Pu Erhs I've tasted. Does contain a hint of 'shou', i.e. aged/ripe pu erh, alongside notes of raspberry, forrestfloor, bergamot, pibe tobacco and sweet black tea akin to a lightly smoked lapsang. Will possibly buy again due to it's cheap weight/price ratio and overall pleasing taste.
I am Japanese and drink tea regularly as part of my weekly routine.
I’m very happy to be able to purchase this kind of tea in Europe.
The tea has a fresh green aroma that brings a refreshing feeling.
It’s excellent for daily drinking.
