This tea possesses the right amount of bitterness which is essential to transform the taste into lasting hui gan (a cooling sensation in the mouth). The aroma of this tea is elegant and it finishes with a nice floral fragrance, which can be delightfully savored.

Great after taste

By Neal Perrin
Another fine puerh from Banatea. I really enjoyed the long after taste from this raw puerh. Clean sweet and crisp right amount of bitterness that turns sweet quickly hope to purchase again.

I frequently use this tea for my tasting class to demonstrate the "gan" aftertaste.

Great to keep in personal stock!

I love to drink this raw puer frequently because of its freshness. It has a light flavor that lingers well, and I always enjoy the returning breath on this one as I relax on my lunch break. My Coworker and I share this and she also loves this tea.

Great tea

By Johnt3
Really interesting and lively tea. Great floral notes, a punchy, vibrant mouthfeel, and good huigan. The smell at the bottom of the cup was strong and sweet. The endurance really caught my attention; from the first steep to the last there was a notable sweetness and evolving aspects that kept my mouth watering for more.
