Ripe brings back first years of sipping Pu-erh tea

By Halee
My first years of sipping Pu-erh tea. Master Chan's reminded me of being patient. It was not long before I looked forward to the taste. I like this tea a lot.
Our Response:

Oh. That is so true. We too had to learn to be patient and the reward is so sweet. Sometimes, a tea will only peak its head out at the beginning. And, only after we've given it enough time will it show its true self after 6 or 8 steep. And the patient ones get to savor the sweet honey taste, the silky throat feel, and the rejuvenating nature of good tea.

Great daily drinker

By Sylvan Schneider
There’s something so comforting about this tea. It’s just right in every way, I think it has a balanced flavor, good medium qi, and even leaves a cooling sensation on my tongue once I’ve finished drinking it. What makes this tea nice is how it’s easy to appreciate, easy to brew, and it’s a good standard clean tea. I’d recommend it for beginners and experienced tea drinkers.
Our Response:

Thank you for your review. This tea is easy to drink and it is an overall good ripe for an affordable price.

So easy to use~

By Amy Harris
These Chan's Mini Ripe Pu-erh tea blocks are so fun and easy to use! I broke off 3 of the little 3-gram segments and dropped them into a large bottle of filtered water. I placed that in the fridge for an overnight chill. The result is so refreshing! This pu-erh tea gives off a lot of flavor in cold water! It is my pleasure to do business with Bana Tea Company; Linda has been so kind and helpful.
Our Response:

Hi Amy, thank you so much for your continued support. It's a great pleasure to know you.
