Intergalactic Tea

The first few steeps reminded me of toasted rice and grass. Nothing too and special nothing to write home about. It was light and reminded me of spring but that was about it. But then by the 4th steep, everything about the soup changed. It was like I was sipping on cantaloupe juice! Its flavor profile got flipped on its head! What a remarkable experience. Most tea sessions tell a story but this one was like reading a novel about someone’s entire life history and future.

So far they’ve been great for the price

I bought this based on affordability. And it was excellent. But what surprised me after having 2 dragon balls so far, is how long it lasts! It took 3-4 steepings (I drink it English style, like a heathen, lol (but each steeping is no longer than the time I would leave it in a gaiwan if I drank it traditionally)) before the dragon ball even really started to open up. Because of that, the flavor, color, and texture hangs around longer and allows for more cups and enjoyment than most other Shu’s I’ve tried over the years. I think it’s a must try!

Just getting into my Gongfu tea journey and am supremely enjoying this white. Citrusy, bright and golden in color - reminds me of a delicious lemony baked treat. I drank my two minis and am ordering the cake now!

Incredible tea for the price, very forgiving to long steep times and im forgetful

I got this on a lark as I was looking for a good $ deal for some tea at the time. It has some really interesting flavor notes that I am still trying to parse out completely. Very enjoyable. I am buying more right now as I type this review :)

A great tea!

Love this tea!

Sweet, smooth, easy to drink but with enough complexity to keep things interesting. If you push it you get a little tartness that reminds me of a honeycrisp apple but no bitterness.

The sweet potato thing, subtle yet profound. This is a beautiful tea that gets a dozen amazing steeps without tasting the slightest bit weak. Rich, dark and mellow.

Very pleasant creamy vanilla puerh tea!

Favourite place to buy ripe pu erh tea!

I also found this to be a reasonable price.

The most unabashedly fruit-forward shou I think I've ever had. Juicy with a clean and floral finish. Got a free coin in an order and brewed half of it gong fu style in an 80ml clay pot. Will almost certainly come back for more. What a joy.

Very drinkable, great experience i enjoyed them all but that one but im sure its just my taste buds , I think ill be doing this again soon
