Milk Oolong from thepuriTea

Style: Milky Oolong – Region: ?????

100 / 100 Aroma: 10/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 5/5
Jan. 4th, 2013

My first review and my first Milk Oolong and I'm head over heels in LOVE. Mmmm the smell and flavor are heavenly like milk candies. Very silky, creamy and buttery. I don't really detect any floral notes but there is some vegetal and it is good for quite a few resteeps about 5 or 6. I love this tea!!

Pinhead Gunpowder from thepuriTea

Style: Gunpowder Green Tea – Region: China

70 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 4/5
Mar. 28th, 2011

To my mind, these are not pinheads, which I think are supposed to be smaller than regular gunpowder tea, as they are pretty good sized. I brewed it for about a minute and found it to be floral and vegetal, but also seemed to carry some sesame seed in it. The second infusion was for 1.5 minutes and smelled more floral...

Jasmine Pearl from thepuriTea

Style: Jasmine Pearls – Region: China

100 / 100 Aroma: 10/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 5/5
Mar. 28th, 2011

Oh boy, this is a super-duper good jasmine. It is tied for first place for me, as it is so different from my other favorite. It is very very flora, without being cloying. The taste is thoroughly Jasmine and I really can't say enough good about it. It will go for several short infusions and it is great fun to watch th...

Red Robe Oolong from thepuriTea

Style: Da Hong Pao – Region: Wuyi, Fujian, China

100 / 100 Aroma: 10/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 5/5
Mar. 28th, 2011

To me this dry tea smelled like one of my favorite aromas - mac and cheese. The first infusion was a combination of a floral, with raisins and caramel, with a tiny hint of smoke. The second was more floral and sweeter, with more raisin in it.. As it cooled, it developed a certain fruitiness that reminded me of peache...

Red Dragon Pearl from thepuriTea

Style: Black Tea – Region: Yunnan, China

93 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 5/5
Mar. 28th, 2011

These chickpea sized balls of tea are too cute. They look like miniature rag balls that weavers or braiders use in making rugs. There is a definite scent of chocolate and dried leaves to them. As they brew, this continues and you are rewarded with a lovely smooth, sweet malty drink. There is a nice litle kick of ast...

Jasmine Golden Yunnan from thepuriTea

Style: Jasmine Tea – Region: Yunnan, China

83 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 5/5
Mar. 28th, 2011

This is a superb tea. It is very rich, very sweet, with a bit of a pepper kick to ground it. I am a huge fan of Yunnan and while this isn't the very best Yunnan, (that would be wasted in a blend) it is of high enough quality to carry the very good Jasmine. This is not an ethereal Jasmine, but a very solid one. I p...
