TIAN HU SHAN First Grade Tea Chinese LongJing/Dragon Well Green Tea Loose Leaf 8oz (227g)

Excellent flavor. Size a bit small as it goes fast. Caffeine level low. Would also like a no caffeine version. Lasts many rounds .If they have one thats more bitter i would buy too for a coffee substitute.exotic taste

Love it, very clear liqure, nice flavor. I brew at 175 - 180°FI do Going Fu brew, 1.5 to 2 times grandpa style, depends on how many brews I plan. I can get 8+ brees. I find steaming the leaves helps the first 20 - 30 second brewThese are rolled leaves, remind me of gun powder tea. Dust is very low and find the first rinse not needed, but if I did, I would not steam the leaves.

It was ok. Not the best loose leaf black tea I've had and not the worst. Nice amount on the box. Truly loose leaves that look good in color. Smells ok. Tastes just like mild black tea.

I normally buy my puer tea from small specialty tea sellers. The tea market is ripe with nonsense...bad tea, fake tea, poor tea marketed as quality tea and sold to unsuspecting buyers, etc.I've had quite of bit of puer tea over the last 8 years. Some of it pretty bad and some of it quite good. For the price, this puer tea is quite good. The cake doesn't have any bad odors, it brews up strong and dark (5 second rinse, then 30s, 60s, 90s steepings). It's got the typical earthiness of a ripe puer and has a nice lingering sweetness. After the 3rd steeping, it still brews up in decreasing darkness and most of the flavor has faded, but that's par for the course of a tea of this price. I've had more expensive teas fade out more quickly than this one.My only hesitation is, most likely, you can't trust any of the printing on the label. So we know nothing about the tea's actual origins or the condition of the plantations (heavy chemical spraying or not) or anything like that. Without lab testing, it's hard to say what the actual underlying quality is of this tea. But it does taste good.The cellophane-wrapped box it's shipped in looks like it's being marketed towards Western tourists or Westerners shopping in Western Asian markets. So it doesn't have that boutique higher-end feel of quality tea, but that doesn't mean the tea inside is crap. Did I mention it tastes pretty good?I probably won't buy this again because I've gotten spoiled on higher end tea, but I'm glad to have found a decent tea on Amazon (which I can't say for the other puer I ordered that smells like perfumed cleaning chemicals).

This is the 2nd Time I've ordered this, because it's become my "Every Day Genmaicha" of choice. This Genmaicha is "The REAL THING". The Best Part of Genmai Cha is the Toasted Brown Rice, which the REAL ones have a few "Popped", into a White color, just like a Miniature "Popcorn". It's the Flavor from this Popped Brown Rice, that gives Genmaicha Green Tea, it's True "Green Rice Tea"Taste. The Tea Leaves themselves also need to be the ones specifically grown for this type of tea, but you don't need to pay Top Dollar, for just everyday enjoyment. This Genmaicha Tea is grown and processed in Mainland China (but does NOT have the "CA-65" Toxic Cancer Warning Label), and imho, is just fine and good enough for everyday enjoyment. Your Brain has 12-Cranial Nerves, and THREE of them are just for Tasting, one for the Tip of your Tongue, a 2nd one for the Middle and Back of your Tongue, and the 3rd one is for the Upper Part of Your Throat, to catch the Flavors of whatever it is you just Swallowed, as it goes down your Esophagus, so give them ALL the time needed for your Brain to get their Signals, and sip this Genmaicha Rice Tea, slowly, so you can enjoy the moments of it's True Taste and Flavors. That's why it's really a 3-Step Process to enjoy drinking Tea, because of how Modern Human Brains are wired to our Mouth and Throat. Of course, Smell, and Sight, add to it all too, which is why I prefer to use a Thick Glass BEER MUG, so I can see the color of the Tea, and all the Leaf's and Toasted Brown Rice too. 5-STARS... !!! v/r, The Tea Spectator :o)

This dragonwell green tea is very good for the price. It's very energizing compared to some of the other greens I drink daily. Water temperature is very important, I don't use fully boiled water or else it ruins the delicate flavors. I will continue to purchase and enjoy this tea!
