I overstepped it just a tad, so it’s a little bitter, but I still like it. It has a savory, veggie flavor, and isn’t too grassy like some green teas can be for me. Really it’s a pretty lovely tea, and I wish Rosali tea sold it individually on their website.

This tea was my introduction to white tea. It was pleasantly grassy and a little floral. It was tasty hot or iced. I got it as a gift and am out now. I wish shipping weren’t so costly because it’s a great light tea to have on hand.

The chocolatey taste reminds me a little of the Shan Tuyet tea I just reviewed. This is a little milder, and the flavors are subtle. It smells and tastes almost toasted, and like many of the teas I like, is gently sweet. I just finished my sample and will likely order more. I like this one a lot as an afternoon tea, because of its mild flavor.

This is a tea I like serving to guests, since I think it’s a very approachable black tea. I find it malty, strong, and not bitter. It also takes milk and sugar well. It’s not fancy, I don’t find it to be very complicated in its flavors, but is hearty and servicable.

I haven’t tried many pu-erhs, but this one seems okay. It’s a little bitter for me, but is still earthy. It’s not my favorite, but I drink it from time to time. The earthy taste is comforting sometimes.

Yum yum. This one is earthy, starchy and rich. It’s a go-to tea when I’m looking for something dark and strong.
