Jinglong Tea Factory - Puerh Tea Tuocha Jumbo Dragon (40 Cups) Ripe Pu-erh (3.6 Ounce)

The title says everything pretty much. I haven't drank the tea yet, but I can tell from the smell that's earthy, sweet, and floral (Somewhat similar to red/black tea but stronger) that it's likely going to taste much better than some more fishy-smelling, flat-tasting pu erhs you can get for the price.Definitely would make a nice, inexpensive yet tasteful gift for a tea enjoyer you know.

Very tasty tea, I did not like the smell of not brewing leaves, but after brewing, the smell becomes normal.

Very disappointed. I generally like Pu Erh teas from Jinglong Tea Factory but upon breaking into the cake I found strands of plastic and even someone's sunflower seed they most likely spit out!I think these teas are a good price and decent taste but this quality control has made me very weary of purchasing ever again.

Its great quality and value! The chinese always give great value to customers vs western brands which i feel try to skim as much profits for the same or lesser quality. With this you get quality AND quality!

I was very excited to try this Puerh tea. It came recommended as a possible upgrade to the Puerh I was drinking on a normal basis. Two things really stand out about this tea that make it a step up from the rest. First, it's very smooth. I drink my tea strong and this tea drinks like rich velvet. It's deep red brown color has a very elegant and consistent taste. The second thing I noticed is how it breaks off the cake, the leaves separate very nicely and show the character of the leaf. This is an extremely sure sign of quality, being able to see the leaves open when brewing the tea and being able to appreciate their individual shapes; a sure sign that quality tea was used when forming the tea cake. Very good tea. I will buy again.

Even after trying steeps of varying length, the tea did not have much flavor, and there was a mildly off-putting fishy smell (If there had been literally any other flavor, I probably could've ignored it, but there was not, so I ended up not drinking the entire thing). (But I should've seen that coming with a 10 dollar pu-er.) Probably not buying tea off Amazon ever again.

I made sure to prepare it properly with the one strain before serving the second steeping. It was a mellow, stable, slight earthy tasting experience.

its dark, drinkable when hot. The taste could be better.
