Ma Liu Mi Tea

This Ma Liu Mi oolong tea is pretty good. It has some floral flavor and is neither too intense nor heavy. It’s good with some sweetener. I wouldn’t personally get it again, but I wouldn’t not drink it if it was offered to me. It’s OK is my opinion. I would recommend it for people…

Wen Shan Pouchong Tea

I don’t have much to say on the Wen Shan Pouchong—it’s a nice oolong tea. It has a sort of sweet, grassy flavor. It didn’t become bitter or too strong after a long steep. It’s a smooth, easy drink. It doesn’t take the spot as my favorite oolong or tea, but I’d definitely drink it…

Golden Flower Tea

The Golden Flower Tea comes as these tightly woven ovalish green ‘balls’. There are flecks of copper ‘golden’ hues to them. It smells a bit floral…floral, but thicker and heavier for lack of a better term. The floral smell is accompanied by a somewhat floral taste. In addition to having a floral taste, it is…

White Peony Tea

Okay, yes, in my White Symphony tea review, I said that I had no need to try the White Peony tea since the White Symphony tea was so good. But I did anyway. …And I pretty much feel the same after trying it. The White Peony Tea, even more so than the White Symphony Tea,…
