Really elegant! Teapot is a little big for gongfu, but I really love drinking green teas with this. I have so much teaware already, but I would reccommend this to my friends who want to get started with tea. It s a simple set for a reasonable price that can last forever and go with any decor.

I always loved how Ti Kuanyin had these huge, impressive leaves that look like a salad, and this gives me that effect for a much lower price. It looks amazing in a gaiwan. Beautiful floral taste too, get this one for a little gift you drop on a friend who wants to get into more tea and hasn t really experienced the joy of hand-rolled leaves yet. I know if I found this when I was first getting into tea, I would be filled with joy and wonder.

I waited for this one to come back in stock because I missed getting a certain dragonfruit flavored drink from a certain chain coffee shop that was on my old college campus. Fills the hole in my heart.

Finally I can have a nice, full-bodied Chai latte without getting caffeine zoomies!

Drink this cold when you want to drink juice or something sugary but you don t want to consume the huge amounts of sugar that come with that. Very juicy, great for when you don t know what fruit tea to buy.

Smells like watermelon, tastes like fruit punch. It s light and refreshing, and best served iced. I can t wait to experiment with putting some lemonade in this or using it in mixed drinks.

I would not drink this straight. Dilute this with some cream, or else it ll give you a bit of a headache. If you add sugar to this, you are truly unhinged.

I make an iced tea concentrate with this, shake it up with some water and ice in a cocktail shaker, and it tastes JUST LIKE a certain shaken iced tea you can get at a certain chain coffee shop... but you didn t hear it from me ;)

Try this if you have bad experience with chocolate teas being thin and overall bland and waxy. The chai spices and pu-erh tea make this very full flavored.

Good stuff! I made a huge pot of it and knocked off the whole sample bag in a weekend with a friend.

I make this every night for my s.o. with maple syrup as sweetener. I d recommend using honey or maple syrup to sweeten this one, it s not made for the thin nature of sugar.

Pour this stuff over rice to make ochazuke. I promise, it ll be such a comforting little soup.

This tea makes me so happy. When I get loose Japanese tea from the Japanese grocery, a lot of them have a very badly aged fishy taste. If your experience of Japanese green tea has been marred by your local Japanese grocery like mine, try this. It ll fix everything.

If you re new to trying more upscale full leaf teas or just starting out with gongfu brewing, this one will leave such an impression on you. I recommend using a gaiwan with this one, and DEFINITELY NOT a tea infuser. Using an infuser with this tea is a disservice to yourself and the beauty of this tea. The leaves expand many times its size into a gorgeous green salad. I m in love with this tea, and always will be.

Really nice! I drink this on the regular when I need a good little shot of caffeine.

Simply comforting. My favorite thing to drink at night when I m in the mood to have sugary fruit punch but don t want to pay the consequences.

Wow, this has enough caffeine to probably put me in the hospital if I had enough of it.

I was surprised. I don t usually like mug infusers, but I had no teapot at the house I m staying at at the moment. It s lovely, and what I love most of all about it is it s very very minimal with drippage.

This is good, but my advice is to NOT use too much tea. I like to make strong tea with a lower leaf to water ratio. It s much better weaker than it is strong! Much sweeter. I experimented with it a lot today, and it tastes lovely with honey and lemon juice.

I love this, because now I can mix hot drinks with pretty designs and see them through the glass!

Solid black tea, full bodied enough on its own and not your typical milk and sugar tea.

This was the one tea in a haul of other tea that I thought I would like the least, but I liked it the most. This is really light and beautiful, I highly recommend this oolong.

When I was in college, I d have unsweetened plain passion tea from Starbucks almost every other day. This tastes EXACTLY like it, except a little more... autumny? It s good, it s better than bux.

This is a pretty good multifaceted black tea. I wouldn t say it tastes like liquor, but it sure does have layers.

This stuff really does look like wine. I d love to drink it iced in a fancy glass.

Mine came with a little chip, but I really don t care, it s so small it s barely noticeable. This is so fun for when you want to be pretentious and act like you know a lot about tea for people you want to impress. You just make a little bit of tea, sip it, and spout nonsense, and it s totally believable.

BUTTERY, this stuff is BUTTERY. I d like to try a larger leaf version of this as well!

If you want something that tastes like thai iced tea at a restaurant, this has a little bit too much coconut to match that kind of taste in my opinion.

I like these, but the tea inside has aged a bit poorly, and it gives them a bit of a fishy taste. I suspect I got a bad batch.

This is really nice to have with a little sugar and milk when you re feeling in the mood for something sweet but not too decadent sans caffeine

There is something about having tea in a cake form that makes things so much more elegant, especially if you have a fancy tea knife!

Everyone says this tastes like Chrismas. I have to agree.

This is just as re-infusible as a tea from MastersTeas. My go-to tea when I m serving gongfu to people that might not be too big on more complex flavors! An amazing black tea that borders a little on oolong. Definitely not basic!

Smells like dirt. Tastes like dirt and mushrooms, and almost like... if you ve ever tasted a banana peel? But it s all good, trust me. Just try it, it feels earthy and is probably amazing with greasy food. This will cut through the grease of a fried chicken leg blissfully.

THE CUTEST! Huge compared to the gongfu pots I m used to, though. Pouring water over the leaves is so pretty in this thing, but it s important to remember to put enough leaves so the tea doesn t come out weak if you fill up the entire thing.

The coolest thing ever! I tried to get as close as I could to brewing gongfu style in this thing, and the way the water flows through the leaves makes every drop extremely flavorful!
