Very smooth tea. The smell is sweet and reminds me of cinnamon toast crunch mixed with honey. The taste is very clean,green and enjoyable. It’s a laid back cup for me, which is exactly what I am looking for at 5pm. However, I would have liked to have a bit more flavor, it isn’t strong, but it could be stronger,imo.
Made a matcha lemonade with this today. Yum yum yum.
i like this tea a lot, it tastes a little roasted,slightly vegetal, and spicy, but it satisfying.
this was my birthday tea today! :)
well, it’s the morning and before I start social networking i prefer to have tea in me!
Last night I brewed Jasmine Pearls in my everyday teapot. and this morning, this tea still smells of jasmine. That is pretty remarkable. This tea is great. The taste is quite complex and reminds me a tiny bit of green tea. The tea steeps up a slightly herbaceous,yet woody/fresh taste. There is a sweetness, but it is more on the back end of my palette. After I swallow, the tea’s finish is this wonderful lingering sweetness that makes me want another sip!
I really dig this tea. It smelled amazing in the package that I received yesterday! I’m steeping it tonight while indulging in Alice in Wonderland again(such a good movie!). My initial reaction is the steeped smell of the wet leaves and the liquor is overwhelmingly like you stuck you nose into a freshly made plate of rice. Rice is the overwhelming smell. The taste, reminds me of a genmaicha meets green tea meets pu erh. The flavor profiles of all three of those remind me of this tea.The genmaicha is most likely because of the rice as well. I like this tea, it’s very unique! Bravo, Tony on another great tea you offer! :)
The liquor is a pale honey/copper color and has some similar smells that were in the dry leaf, which was a savory smell. The wet leaf really had more of a black tea smell to it, which was reminicent of a ceylon tea to me, smelling tanin like and a tiny bit malty. The tea is silky and light.It really does not stay around in your mouth very long, but the flavors are great within your mouth. I automatically pick up are some astringency, which again echos a black or oolong tea. I also taste some earthiness, and sweetness in the flavor.

such a fun tea! It tastes great too!
Cool! Got this from @Jamie! What a beautiful tea! As much fun to watch open as it is to sip!
great tea to wake up with on a saturday :)
floral ,sweet and smooth. just what I like in a friday morning cuppa.
yum yum yum. Great tea, see my previous reviews for more of my thoughts on this tea.
The dry leaves of this tea are very beautiful, and have a fuzzy,soft look to them and are yellow golden color. This color changes to a reddish brown hue after being steeped. The liquor is smooth and has a medium mouth feel, right in between thin and thick. This tea’s liquor was quite spicy, reminiscent of black pepper and a tiny bit of cocoa

just finishing up the last of this sample=[. So sad because this was one of my favorites. It has the typical black tea taste, that is sweet, a bit caramel-y, and malty. BUT, there is the added flavor of the flowers and passionfruit, which is a wonderful combo! The tea smells great too, the aroma is sweet and mainly passionfruit.
Quickly becoming a favorite of mine. Sipping on a cup this morning since Saturday’s are always difficult to get any enthusiasm to do things! Tea usually helps that laziness :)

This tea is beautiful, refined, exotic and complex, not to mention very tasty. The huge, black, wiry leaves produce an amber cup that fills the air with its smell. The aroma is woody, chocolately, fruity, and toasty. Huge dark leaves are uniform and visually striking.

Mm. Very solid green tea. I really like this. I’ve steeped it twice so far and the second steep was just as flavorful and remarkable as the first!
This tea is mellow, and soft cup with some subtle red qualities, like earthiness. The caramel flavor is not as strong in the steeped tea, it is there, but is more of a complimentary flavor than an overpowering primary flavor. My favorite part of the tea was how the caramel chunks melted to create a bit of creaminess and thickness in the cup. The melted caramel made the tea taste like I added milk to it, when I didn’t, which was interesting!

This is a wonderful green oolong tea… its smell is fruity with some floral undertones and the taste is very robust for a green oolong. If you like green teas but are still new to oolongs, I would recommend this tea.
