Smells vegetal and tastes that way, which many love. Its just not my cup of tea. There is some complexity but the savouriness just doesn’t get me excited.

Not my cup of tea. This is quite a bland flavour and like the previous reviewer says, if you are looking for fruity sweetness (which I love), this isn’t the tea for you.

Often I can make good use of green teas I find poor or in this case bland by using them with cold water. Unfortunately the leaves don’t all sink like they do with some and the taste is nothing special when cold brewed.

Lovely light color. Subtle smell which intrigues i.e. it smells like there could be something rich and tasty afoot. The taste is very clean and pleasant. This is a tea I can easily drink all day without becoming tired of it. I originally gave it a 73 because it is subtle, but now that I find myself appreciating it for long periods of time it is being revised to 80.

This Ceylon based tea smells sensational. It tastes delicious. Lovely color too. This is a great tea if you want an easy to make Earl Grey with creamier notes than the more traditional types with Black Tea. This is one of my favorite teas; clean, refreshing, slightly sweet, slighty creamy and very smooth.

This is a good solid oolong tea. It has some character which I find it hard to put my finger on. Rather pleasant for 3 steeps. This was bought in a Thai supermarket.

Very savoury. For me this doesn’t provide any benefit to drinking it. I have just thrown this tea in the trash.

This actually got better over time and a year later I would give it 65/100

This is like a white tea beefed up with Raw Pu-erh. The liquor is light and tasty. It is full flavoured despite it’s appearance. This is much more of a white tea for me and shall be a repeat purchase. Sorry I can’t be more specific about the flavour- lets just say it leaves me satisfied where standard white teas often lack oomph.

Lovely light tea with a clear appearance. The character is a delightful chocolate taste, which you can first detect when smelling the tea- I could tell there was something sweet. It is a subtle effect, but that little sweetness mixed with the clear white tea taste might just make this one of my new favorites. A solid 90 score from me for now.
