Premium Nannuoshan Pu Erh Tea Value Pack, 100 teabags

I am a lifelong tea drinker and consider myself quite versed in black teas. I have made Ahmad # 1 English tea my daily tea for several years , and order it from Amazon,too. I read about the Pu Erh tea in an article that Alice Waters is quoted for making it now her "go to" tea due to its healthful properties. Any health benefits will be an added bonus, as this is a delicious tea.It is similarly priced to Ahmad teas ,which I consider excellent ,especially iced. Living in the deep south, finding a tea that is strong and tasty enough to drink over ice, can be a challenge without immediately watering down good tea. This is a very good tea. Thanks for carrying it at an affordable price,Amazon...ch

I don't think I ever have seen a product with so many 5 star and 1 star reviews. I am not an "expert" when it comes to tea. Like many I've been drinking more and more as the health benefits continue to be touted. I've been looking for an alternative to green tea...especially as a coffee replacement in the AM. I tried a couple of different varieties from local health food stores. I'd say that this product falls squarely between those two. All 3 have a similar taste so I must say that I am a bit confused about claims that it's taste is off. It's got the same "strong" but somehow mellow taste as the others. I'd compare it to coffee...good coffee can be "bold" without a lingering aftermath that makes you reach for the sugar to protect your palette.If your looking for a good AM tea that can be a more then reasonable coffee replacement I'd highly encourage you to give this a try. I normally drink my coffee with cream but no sugar and find I don't need any sugar with this unlike some black breakfast teas that leave a strong aftertaste.Very happy and will certainly order again...

After reading The Tea Girl fo Hummingbird Lane by Lisa See, I had to get this tea. Additionally, my cholesterol was just over 200 and so I thought this might be a good survey. I had my blood work done and started this delightful, beautiful tea daily. After 5 months, my cholesterol was around 170 and my tea cup was slightly stained with the delicious evidence that this tea does its job - on all levels. I recommend this to so many people. If you have a chance to try this satisfying tea, please do it. I've ordered more of these bags (I have the loose tea too, but the bags are so nice) and have my cupa every day.

sort of tastes like i brewed a wooden match.mild enough flavor that as long as you put lemon, etc in it, will be drinkable.

I enjoy the rice earthy taste of Pu Erh, and if it does have any health benefits so much the better. Not a gourmet level tea by any means but a solid pick for every day. I have enjoyed it. And it does stand up to 3 to 4 steepings, more if you like weaker teas.

This is the only brand of Pu Erh tea that I've purchased, but I like it. The tea has an earthy taste, which some people may not like, but I did. What surprised me was that the tea had a slight sweetness to it...no the tea isn't sweet as if it had sugar in it, but there was a subtle sweetness in the taste. For personal reasons I've been cutting out sugar from my diet but I've never really liked drinking tea without sugar. with this tea I found I actually liked it.When I run out I will probably buy more of the same brand....the price was reasonable compared to other Pu Erh teas.

I saw on Dr. Oz how pu erh tea is supposed to shrink fat cells and help you lose weight. So I bought this pu erh tea on Amazon after reading the great reviews. Be forewarned: this tea smells and tastes like an old musty basement. It is not an enjoyable "earthy" tasting tea. It's gross. It literally tastes like I went down into a 100 year old dirt floor basement, swept it, and spooned the dirt into a tea bag. It doesn't taste like tea at all. I'm not saying this particular brand of tea is bad - I don't know - all pu erh probably tastes like this for all I know (pu erh is a fermented tea so maybe that is where the bad taste comes from). I tried adding honey, apple pie spice, and even apple slices to try and cover the awful taste, but it didn't help make it taste any better. I drank about 1/3 of a cup before I gave up. So for anyone out there who has never had pu erh and would like to try it for it's weight loss benefits but hates old smelly basements... find a different tea. White tea is supposed to be great at helping prevent fat storage AND it tastes great, so try that!

I prefer pu'erhs that are earthy, slightly smoky, and finish smoothly. While this tea doesn't completely fit this profile, it will do. It isn't as good as some pricier pu'erhs but it's as good an everyday tea as I have found. Other tea lovers in my family have adopted it as their regular morning tea even though they are not the pu'erh aficionados that I am.
