The freshness of this tea was enjoyable, will order again.

Very forward tasting and fine with the right brew time.

One of my favorite teas year after year.

I enjoyed this Dragon Well, but not my favorite of your Longing offerings.

Nice aroma. Love being able to see the petals float to the to as the tea steeps. Actual jasmine flavour is not as strong as I was expecting, but still pleasant.

This is an excellent Wen Shan Baozhong. I try to include some in my order whenever I find it, and this version certainly does not disappoint. Great tea!

I bought this jasmine tea along with the Sample A and Sample B variety packs. While this one was quite good, I found the flavor of the Long Zhu type from Sample B a bit stronger and sweeter. I brewed them exactly as the instructions stated for the cup method (I used a teapot with a removable infusion basket), so perhaps the flavor comes out different using a gaiwan with multiple small steeps or maybe the small batch I got was a bit older. If someone was looking for a cheaper alternative to this one or it didn‘t live up to your expectations, give the Long Zhu type a try.

Love the presentation of the tea once the flowers are fully saturated. Great neutral flavor, slightly less sweet compared to the chrysanthemum bud (tai ju) variety. Be careful not to over steep! The bitterness crept in while trying to get a stronger flavor quicker than with the buds.

Aroma: Chestnut, floral Taste: As the product page says, the first infusion was sweet, mellow, and smooth. There was the smallest tinge of bitterness, but overall the first infusion was delicious. Successive infusions became more bitter. By the fifth infusion the bitterness had made the tea somewhat unpleasant. The smell of the dry tea leaves before infusion is wonderful, the aroma of the first infusion is very nice, and I really liked the first infusion. Unfortunately it was downhill from there. There are obviously people who don't taste the bitterness. Whether you taste it or not depends on genetics. I recommend trying a sample before making a decision to buy or not to buy.

Aroma: Roasted bean, floral, and fruity Taste: Sweet, roasted bean, floral, and fruity. A very slight bit of lingering bitterness in the aftertaste. This will become very bitter if you wait too long between steepings, but a couple of quick rinses with boiling water removes most of the bitterness.

One of my favorite herbal tea choices. The taste reminds me of the tea my friend’s mother would make the few times I visited their house when I was younger. Slightly more sweeter than the fully opened flower variety. Seems like you can go a bit longer with the buds when steeping without the bitterness creeping.

A good variety in this sampler! I ended up finding my favorite type of jasmine tea so far in the Jasmine Dragon Pearls Long Zhu variety. To me the sweet after taste made it a stand out to me. The Nu Er Huan (Daughter’s Ring) left a little to be desired in flavor since it‘s much more expensive compared to the others in the set, but it is a beautiful artisanal design. Honorable mention to the Jasmine Silver Needle White Tea, the first white tea I‘ve tried. It had a very interesting light jasmine flavor mixed with a bit of honeydew melon.

A great assortment of types in this sample! The flavors ranged from more emphasis on the jasmine versus some that had a more balanced profile between that and the green tea taste. My favorite ended up being the Snail (Yu Luo) variety.

The quality of this cabinet exceeded even my best hopes. This was exactly what I wanted, I use it every day. The trays are perfectly designed for tea usage with a nice cutout in the back corner to make it easy to break a cake and just pour the leaves into the brewing container.

I enjoyed this tea sample and will order more with next order.

Reliable Chun Ya, however less sweet than I've had previous years.

A solid Dragon Well Longjing that I feel requires careful brewing.

Reliable Chun Ya, however less sweet than I've had previous years.

A lovely green tea that is subtle but still offers tremendous flavor nuance.

BEST DWLG I've had in a long time! A very forgiving tea when it comes to brewing. No astringency noted, just great taste.

Love this tea- a wonderful Long Ya offering.

A bit less flavorful than I'm used to in a Bi Lo Chun.

샘플을 구매해서 마셔보았습니다. 이 차는 정말 맛있습니다! 달달한 마른 대추의 향기가 정말 진해요! 달콤하게 숙성된 향기 덕분에 건포도와 다크초콜릿이 떠오르기도 합니다. 차는 맑고 가벼워서 마시기 정말 편안합니다. 부드럽고 가볍고 깨끗해요. 목넘김도 정말 매끄럽습니다. 차의 달달한 향기가 강렬하면서도 정말 오래 오래 남아있습니다. 기분이 너무 좋아요. 저는 원래 목재향기를 좋아하고 묵직한 바디감을 좋아하는데, 이 차는 목재향기 보다는 훨씬 더 달콤하고, 바디감은 가벼운 편인데도 저를 완전히 사로잡았어요. 한 열번정도 푸어해서 마신 것 같아요. 맑은 차탕에 비해 내포성도 꽤 탄탄하고 좋네요~ 보이숙차를 한번도 마셔본 적이 없는 분이라면 무조건 이 차를 통해 꼭 입문 하셨으면 좋겠습니다. 무조건 좋아하실 거라고 생각해요. 적극 추천합니다. 그리고 이미 차에 대한 경험치가 높은 분들이더라도, 이 차는 매일매일 편안하게 마시기 좋습니다. 아침 빈 속에 마시기에도 자극 없이 좋을 것 같아요. 정말 호불호 없이 누구나 좋아할 멋진 차라고 생각합니다.<br /> <br /> I bought a sample and finally tried this tea. This tea is really, really delicious!<br /> The sweet aroma of dried jujubes is very strong. It also reminds me of raisins and dark chocolate because of the sweet aged aroma. The tea soup is very clear and light, so it is very easy and comfortable to drink. It feels soft, light, and clean. The mouthfeel is also very smooth.<br /> The sweet aroma is strong, but it stays for a very long time after drinking. It makes me feel so happy.<br /> I usually like woody flavors and a thick body, but this tea is much sweeter than woody, and the body is actually on the lighter side. Even so, it completely won me over.<br /> I think I brewed it about ten times. Even though the liquor is so clear and light, the tea still has very good endurance and keeps giving flavorful infusions.<br /> If someone has never tried ripe puer tea before, I really hope they start with this one. I honestly think almost everyone will enjoy it. I highly recommend it.<br /> Even if you already have a lot of experience with tea, this is still a wonderful tea for everyday drinking. I think it would even be gentle enough to drink on an empty stomach in the morning.<br /> For me, this is the kind of tea that almost anyone can enjoy. It&#039;s a really wonderful tea.

TeaVivre nailed this one. As a massive fan of Dan Cong, this Wudong Song Zhong definitely doesn't disappoint. It hits right away with a beautiful orchid aroma and a thick, creamy mouthfeel. The later steeps really bring out those subtle almond and buttery notes. Exactly what a high-mountain Wudong should be.

Nice black tea with a juicy ripe peach taste and a lightly floral aroma. It lacks endurance though; 5 gram sample pack in a 120mL gaiwan only yields four good infusions.
