Good Morning everyone:) OK this is my first time making this so I am going the the directions exactly. I have never had the pearls and i wanted to try them before i go crazy ordering stuff online. The pearls were small i don’t know why i was expecting them to be a little bigger.20 pearls in the bag. I boiled the water to a boil and let cool to 180 deg. and let steep for 2mins. wow from the first time I open the package the air is fills with jasmine it’s smell so floral but so wonderful. after steeping. I see that the pearls have expanded to fill the room of the bag. I allow it to cool down to a temp. that I can drink it XD I can’t wait to take that first sip. And the first sip is wonderful! but i don’t have much to compare it too. I did notice i keep putting the glass closer to my nose so i can sniff the aroma.
side notes: no sugar or milk needed
I would like to try more pearls (just for kicks)
I will be finding a loose leaf version for me to try next(local)
I agree with steep time and temp was good.

This is a bit too much jasmine and not as much chocolate as I would like. I’m finding that it’s not the clean kind of jasmine, but the rather forceful and ‘smelly’ kind. I do like the slightly sweet finish, but it’s not my favorite.

Chocolate and jasmine now that is an odd combo…

Pleasant spiced tea. Has a sweetness to it that is pretty good. Seemed to be overpowered by the bit of milk added.

Cold, which was a poor choice considering the weather.

I’m realizing this pu’erh really isn’t as good as I first thought, but it’s pu’erh, and (to change my own quote) “mediocre pu’erh is better than no pu’erh at all.”

Fairly decent pu’erh. Definitely not as good as some I’ve been drinking recently (see my tealog).

Color: Dark, thick and oily
Nose: berries and hickory smoke
Taste: berries on the front end, add a hint of hickory smoke on the midpallete, and the finish moves on to a grilled meat type flavor

Also don’t know why the box says caffeine free, since mate has about 50% the caffeine of coffee: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yerba_mate

It tastes more like carob than chocolate to me. The bag yields a fairly weak cup; a little tastier once I added almond milk, but still wouldn’t go out of my way to purchase this. Would be better if the bags were filled with more than a scant 1 1/2 teaspoons. Next time I’ll use 2 bags.
