Premium Jasmine Dragon Pearls Green Tea from TeaVivre
Style: Jasmine Pearls – Region: Fuding, Fujian, China77 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
May. 31st, 2018
An amazing tea, somewhat soapy(probably due to steeping error), but the taste is excellent, and it smells amazing, but that is typical of a jasmine tea. This tea is very expensive, and I didn't see much improvement over other jasmine pearls.

2008 Menghai Ripened Pu-erh Tea Tuocha from TeaVivre
Style: Ripened (Shou) Pu-erh – Region: Menghai, Yunnan, China80 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 5/5
May. 31st, 2018
The smell reminds me of a more "pure" version of the hazelberry pu erh tea from Adagio, and is very "woodsy" But with a more mineral of rocky taste, it is a very good value too, especially for a tea from almost 10 years ago.

Moonlight Dragon Ball White Tea from TeaVivre
Style: Moonlight White – Region: Jinggu, Yunnan, China86 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 5/5
May. 29th, 2018
An amazing and sweet tea! It is not very expensive and is a very high quality tea. The ball is tightly packed and I was able to get several infusions(keep in mind you can't break up the ball easily so I would use a at least 12 oz cup and fuse for 5 minutes). The aroma isn't strong but is very nice and sweet, it smells ...

Premium Grade Dragon Well Green Tea (Long Jing) from TeaVivre
Style: Dragon Well (Long Jing) – Region: Zhejiang, China81 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Feb. 13th, 2018
Firstly, I made this tea at 185(90 Celsius) degrees for about 3 minutes. The first steeping was very nutty and I loved the taste very much, it had a lettuce taste which I would normally dislike but in this tea it worked. later steepings were lighter in taste and less nutty. I got 3 steepings using 1.5 teaspoons of tea,...

Taiwan Jin Xuan Milk Oolong Tea from TeaVivre
Style: Milky Oolong – Region: Taiwan / Formosa65 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Feb. 13th, 2018
An overall, 'meh' tea. Was not milky or creamy at all, but that was expected. Had a cabbage taste which was the main thing I disliked about this tea. I would recommend this tea if you a fine with a strong vegetal taste.

Da Hong Pao (Big Red Robe) Wuyi Rock Oolong Tea Fujian from TeaVivre
Style: Da Hong Pao – Region: Wuyi, Fujian, China92 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Feb. 12th, 2018
A truly great tea!
I brew this with one teaspoon of tea per cup(about 1.5 grams I think) And I get 3 steepings. The aroma is nice but indescribable, and the taste is almost the same way. It has nutty notes and is very... "minerally". A pretty good value at $17 per 100g but definitely not cheap either.
Golden Monkey Black Tea from TeaVivre

Feb. 11th, 2018
Very nice tea! Tastes almost exactly like the wild lapsang souchong to me but is a bit fruitier! I will definitely be getting some more on Amazon soon!

Organic Hangzhou Tian Mu Qing Ding Green Tea from TeaVivre
Style: Green Tea – Region: Zhejiang, China82 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Feb. 11th, 2018
Firstly, this tea is obviously VERY high quality and I could tell that right when I opened up the sample. The aroma of the dry leaf was fairly vegetal(spinach/kale) which is not what I am looking for in a tea, but the taste was much less so, especially when brewing for 2 mins instead of the 3-5 which is recommended. Wh...

Genmaicha Herbal Tea from TeaVivre
Style: Genmaicha – Region: Zhejiang, China74 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 3/5
Feb. 11th, 2018
Didn't particularly smell nice at all. It smelled of a salty seaweed with a nuttiness to it. The flavor was much better though and mostly got rid of the seaweed saltiness. Overall, what you'd expect from a genmaicha tea. Price isn't as much of a steal as I thought, because if you use the recommended amount(10g), it cos...

Taiwan Osmanthus Oolong from TeaVivre
Style: Osmanthus Tea – Region: Blend79 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 5/5
Feb. 10th, 2018
This is a good tea! Not what I expected at all though. Teavivre says to use 5g of tea so I will try that next time. The smell and taste is not very complex, a little vegetal and very floral. I do not think I will get this tea again though, as Adagio's golden flower tea is just too good of a price.

Very nice tea! It has a strong chocolate taste/aroma and also has some sweet potato hints as well. Pretty good tea for the price also.
