Cleaning out my Steepster cupboard and realized I never logged this tea. It was not for me – there is a certain flavor here that I can neither place nor enjoy it seems. There were some decent and tasty flavors under that, including camphor and some tobacco, but I couldn’t get past that weird note. I still mark this tea as recommended, because many teafriends and people here on Steepster really enjoy it – so the issue may be more on my end than the tea’s end.

i also just can’t seem to enjoy this one. glad to know i’m not alone. ;)
I recommend this tea, but to each their own ;P
I liked it well enough to buy a second cake!
Yea it seems like either you love it or hate it, no inbetween. Nobody thinks Repave is an “ok” tea lol.
I must say I couldnt quite work this one out either
liked it a lot when reviewed then other times didnt do it for me
Interesting – I gave it a go two or three times, and could never really make it through more than 5 or 6 steeps, and even then just sipping and then dumping them…just somethin about it lol
Grab yourself the Bana sheng sampler pack. The mengsung I just had was stellar!
I do need to order some tea from Bana sometime – I’ll try to make that my next pu order, but I need to take a bit of a purchasing hiatus for at least a few weeks ;)
Matu (and Rasseru) what type of vessel did you use to brew repave?
I believe I just used a porcelain gaiwan, as it was all I had at the time.
