First steep, and I immediately thought, “Wow, smells like marshmallows!” The taste itself is a pleasant, easy sipping black tea. The smell is divine though.

So glad to have tried this unusual tea. Love that. It has a beautiful almost-floral scent like jasmine. Should be brewed at white tea temperature (170-180)

I did not know this and boiled it, and it’s a bitter cup. But I won’t hold user error against the tea. Properly prepared, I can tell this is going to be delicious.

Went for the 1 lb bag! It’s a solid stand by, enjoyed every morning, sometimes brewed in a Persian fashion — a pinch of ground saffron, and a cinnamon stick. So delicious.

Smells strongly of cinnamon, which I was not expecting, but little cinnamon taste. I can see it vaguely resembles a cappuccino, and it is a nice caffeine free tea before bedtime.

A nice, subtle almond and lightly spiced flavored white tea. Easy sipping with a nice mouth feel afterwards

A very subtle, easy sipping tea! I got it for the blue color, of course, and the taste is easy-going. Could probably steep for longer and see if more flavor comes through.

I was curious about how a smokey tea would be, as I love smoky foods. The smoke was almost entirely in the aroma, which I think is a good thing. It was very subtle and delicious. I would like to try pure Lapsang Souchong, and compare.

This is a perfect cold-weather tea. Pairs perfectly with Christmas season, but I still enjoy after the holidays. Keeps cheer around in February. It’s a very rich tea, not exactly an easy sipping experience, but delicious.

Admittedly, I’ve been slow to warm to oolong teas, but this one reminds me of a jasmine blend, though there is no jasmine in it. Delicious. :D
