Recent Tasting Notes

This tea is tasty and sweet with a fair amount of fermentation flavor. I only western brewed this this morning but it is good. No time this morning for a gongfu session. There is very little bitterness to this tea and I am sure I would get more complex notes out of it if I gongfud it. As it is it is sweet and tasty.

I brewed this once with 2 mini tuo cha about 10g leaf and boiling water in a 16oz Teavana Glass Perfect Tea Maker for 1 min.

Flavors: Earth, Sweet

Preparation
Boiling 1 min, 0 sec 10 g 16 OZ / 473 ML

is Hawaiian tea industry the same as Hawaiian tea factory? i’m guessing its not?

boychik

I think it’s the same but maybe name changed a little.

mrmopar

You can get this one of ebay as well.

boychik

Yes mrmopar, Dragon Tea House sells it. I found one on Aliexpress,$8 cheaper. Don’t know if I should get fr them or DTH? It’s like sleeping aid. 3 days in a row is not a coinsidence !

mrmopar

Try Berrylleb King Tea on ebay. Highly recommended. Most orders get here in about 10 working days. Good stuff!

boychik

Thank you for your advice , mrmopar. I will.

boychik – you must refer to Grandness on Aliexpress at $22.95, right? She is fine as an aliexpress seller and a sale is a sale. The only down side is that it often takes 2-4 days for her to stock the item before she can ship it (the inventory she has an extensive listing but limited capital tied up in inventory). If you can wait a few extra days, it’s worth it. Also, I’ve picked up several Haiwan items from her and they’ve all been authentic as far as I can tell.

boychik

Yes, DigniTea. That’s the seller. Sure I can wait, I still have nice chunk left. Thanks for recommending!

mrmopar

I will second Grandness also. Great seller as well.

You sent me the 2008 Haiwan Ultimate Flavor…do you know if it has another name as well? (Loving it right now, btw.)

boychik

Cheri, i got it as a sample as well as 2010. so if you dont mind make a new entry for 2008 , copy whatever for this one. i couldnt find an entry, but its the same tea diff year. its very good , i love them both. i have a great mentor supplying me with great samples ;)

Cheri

boychik

Oh my bad mrmopar. The entry for his tea exists Cheri.

mrmopar

Cheri
