From DAVIDsTEA

Pu’erh eye candy
Just unwrapping this pressed tea is a small luxury. To say nothing of the earthy, rich, dark-licorice sweetness of it when steeped. And these steam-heated leaves, like all pu’erhs, are also known for their health benefits. So even if it looks like a cute little thing, this tea will slash your cholesterol, kickstart your metabolism and soothe your digestion. Steep each bonbon up to 5 times! Low in caffeine.

This is this first Pu-erh tea I have tried. Normally I drink White and Green but I really enjoyed this, it has become my new favorite. I didn’t have the same fishy smell or taste that others reported. The smell was more earthy and almost tobacco like. While I did like it plain I found a little bit of sweetener (I use splenda) brings out more of the flavor.

Like the description says, just opening it is fun. The little tea nest has a earthy smell that is delicious. Contrary to the warnings of the salesperson I didn’t find it really strong. Perhaps the second steeping will be? Will add notes later. It has a nice light flavour and a very dark brew. Lovely. A new favv.

I was disappointed with this one, I was looking for more of the licorice flavors.
Not bad overall, but not something I would go for again.

I was a bit disappointed with this tea. I taught it would taste more like sweet-licorice, not one of my favorites
