Snow Chrysanthemum Flower Tea- Xue Ju Hua Cha from Teasenz
Style: Chrysanthemum Tea – Region: China95 / 100 Aroma: 10/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 5/5
Jul. 4th, 2023
A robust kind of chrysanthemum tea, love this especially in the autumn and winter season, but is quite good to as an ice tea in the summer. I only use 1.5g of tea per mug, as just a few flowers release already a lot of flavour!

Bi Luo Chun from Teasenz
Style: Bi Luo Chun – Region: Jiangsu, China90 / 100 Aroma: 10/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Jun. 24th, 2023
Lovely seaweedy and nutty flavour. The tea leaves are very delicate and when steeped they show a nice vibrant green colour. Due to the small leaves the flavour releases quickly. I steeped 5 grams of this tea in a gaiwan for 10 seconds for the first 3 steeps and afterwards I increased it gradually. Could enjoy around 12...

Jasmine Dragon Pearls from Teasenz
Style: Jasmine Pearls – Region: Fujian, China85 / 100 Aroma: 10/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Jun. 24th, 2023
A very fragrant tea and consists of tea leaves and a fair amount of buds. The jasmine aroma balances well with the green tea base. The tea soup has a nice creamy texture. The value is decent, there are cheaper jasmine teas out there, but not at such quality.

Nanjing Yu Hua Cha from Teasenz
Style: Green Tea – Region: Jiangsu, China95 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 5/5
Jun. 24th, 2023
Steeped 5 gram of this green tea at 85ºC for 10 seconds in a gaiwan for the first 3 steeps, and afterwards, I gradually increased the steeping time by 5 seconds per steep. Unlike like green teas such as maofeng and anjibai, this green tea is savoury and robust with sweet, nutty, and vegetal notes. Excellent value for ...

Red Robe Da Hong Pao from Teasenz
Style: Da Hong Pao – Region: Wuyi, Fujian, China95 / 100 Aroma: 10/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 5/5
May. 25th, 2017
It's kind of strange that I've had so many Dan Cong oolongs in my life, but no oolong from Wuyishan. I guess that's because of my Chaozhou background. Given the fame of Dahongpao, I guess it's about time to try it out!
According to the vendor it's a 'banyan' type, meaning it's harvested near the scenic area of Wuyis...
West Lake Dragon Well Tea Long Jing from Teasenz
Style: Dragon Well (Long Jing) – Region: Zhejiang, China89 / 100 Aroma: 10/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 5/5
May. 25th, 2017
The dry leaves released a great roasty aroma when I opened the bag. I couldn't wait but to steep a cup of this great looking green tea in my glass gaiwan.
I cooked water and let it cool down for 2 minute. I can't really say what temperature it is, I tend to steep tea more based on my 'feeling'. And I like it that wa...
Xin Yang Mao Jian from Teasenz
Style: Mao Jian Green Tea – Region: Xinyang, Henan, China90 / 100 Aroma: 10/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
May. 16th, 2017
The appearance of this green tea is dark green. The dry leaves smell amazing. It’s like seaweed.
After brewing I can see that it consists mainly out of small young leaves as well as some one bud one leaf pickings.
This is a pretty strong tea. The flavour reminds me of a biluochun. It’s vegetal, seaweed-like, ...
First Flush Longjing from Teasenz
Style: Dragon Well (Long Jing) – Region: Zhejiang, China92 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 5/5
May. 16th, 2017
I’ve prepared this longjing in a glass and steeped it with water around 80C. It’s more a grandpa style of brewing, but I like it this way with Longjing.
The first brew is delicious. It has the usual nutty and toasty characteristics, but not too strong. The flavour isn’t as vegetal as most green teas, which I l...
