How did it taste?

I dont know, was just commenting on the beauty of it – I do want to shop there this year but they also have some really pricey (but supposedly good) yancha & im not that rich.

Their Bei dou Yi Hao is maybe the most expensive tea ive ever seen, first generation bei dou #1.

How was Milk, Creme, & Alcohol?

It was a nice solid Sheng. I haven’t posted a review yet, for I still wanna work through the cake. However, the brew has a lot of bite to it and not that much sweet, so it’s pretty rough on the senses and stomach. I like Little Walk for a daily drinker instead of MCA.

i have about 20 grams left of MCA. i noticed you can get some sweet in the early steeps by dropping the leaf ratio and up the steep times.

I bought this one because:
A> I was looking for moonlight.
B> The wrapper was beautiful.

I’m happy to hear that I’m not the only one who buys tea because it looks good – or the wrapper is pretty….

How was the dragon tea house one? I was looking at the same one, I remember the lady (and found another with another lady on it iirc, and couldnt decide which I preferred haha) didnt end up buying either.

Of the two I posted I like the Dragon Tea House one better. They are both pretty good.
My all time favorite – not even close – best Moonlight ever…. is this one. It’s pricier then the others but totally worth it. I haven’t bought a cake YET – just had samples – but will once my stash is down a little.
