I ordered this just because I wanted to get something from the Teavivre US warehouse to show support while their China warehouse is closed due to Coronavirus. They have been so generous with samples and such and have great customer service, so I chose a couple of things I knew I would love to have more of on hand.
I made this to go with lunch today. I have never served it to my husband that I can recall, and he usually takes milk and sugar with black tea. Since he has been drinking lots of roasted oolong, I didn’t mention that this was black and he drank it and liked it plain. It really is mild.
It had nice creamy texture and sweet potato aroma so lots of sweetness here. We made two steeps. I used lots of leaf since it was to go with food. This is best to me as an afternoon tea, I think, rather than a breakfast one. I expect we will plow through this bag in no time.
I think tonight I will use it for our gong fu session and see how well it goes for that!

I tried to make an order from their US warehouse too to show support and they refunded my money. :( I sure hope things clear up for them soon and they all stay safe. The tea sounds good. ^^
Kawaii433 – I know samples and tins come from China, so if either of those were in your cart or a sold out in the US tea, it will cancel and refund. I actually wanted the tin but couldn’t get it, but that’s no biggie as I have plenty plus it looks like we are ripping through this bag super fast so it should be fine in the zip bag.

+1 for TeaVivre’s Black Teas & their customer service.
