[EN] I've purchase this tea twice now (did not realize until seeing my order history) This one is a unique experience for me. I love white teas and aged teas due to the aftertaste. This being a Bai Cha, I was expecting a lighter flavor. "Puer" in the title intrigued my curiosity (twice apparently) to explore this. First 2 pours will yield a very mild brew. Therefore, I recommend a rinse (I normally only rinse higher oxidized teas such as roasted oolongs)
This has a ability to give you at least 8 steeps provided adequate leaf volume. (I personally recommend that you be generous) The color is rich amber gold. Dark, yet very clear. Aroma to me at least is similar to a good aged Shou Mei with reedy (bamboo) and wet autumn leaf. Unlike Shou Mei though there is not as strong of an aftertaste in flavor. There is a lingering sensation that lasts on your tastebuds after drinking. All in all, a very mellow drink, with substance yes, but not at all "sharp" or strong as a usual Puer. The amount of buds mixed in with general leaves is of decent quality.

[EN] Excellent tea. I use about 4 or 5g for 100ml with 10 sec steep time (gradually increasing to 20 sec) and it never seems to lose it's taste. I easily get 10 brews out of it.
The taste has been described in other reviews better than I can put it.

[EN] This is quite possibly my favourite tea and never mind the price. Wow! This tea can withstand many many brews and actually gets a lot darker and more complex on the second and third brew and actually makes it to the seventh brew without losing anything nothing astringent or bitter in this brew at all just a bit of alfalfa on the first brew followed by a lovely common floral scent the rest of the brews. This tea is a bargain and I drink it all day beautiful iced or hot!

[EN] Mind blowing tea! This tea gives off a very floral tasting note right away, which fades into a very prominent honey sweetness. Body sensation is alert, creative, and a little blissed out. Such an amazing tea, especially for the price

[EN] Amazing tea for the price! It is a complete bargain. Highly recommend for any true tea enthusiast. A must!
[EN] This is an incredible tea for its value. The look of the dry leaf is whole and beautiful buds and leaves. Both the aroma and taste are bursting with an incredible complexity and depth. I find it so hard to believe the price of this tea. And absolutely bargain that any tea enthusiast must try!
[EN] Full-bodied, high-caffeine, floral and sweet white tea.
I use 3-4 grams in a gaiwan and I have yet to steep it enough times for it to lose flavor. There were a few occasions where it looked turbid and tasted pretty bad, but I think it may be because I took it with me on a plane.
Anyway, outstanding tea for the price.
[EN] This is an excellent white tea with malty undertones and a somewhat sweet taste and scent. I find that about 4-5 minutes steep time works best for optimal flavor. There is no bitterness with this tea whatsoever. Its has now become my primary daily tea.

[EN] very good tea to mix up my normal pu erh. Its quite light, especially int he first steep but it has the thick mouth feel and coating of a good pu erh. It gets better with each steep and I really like the light hay / flora notes it has while steel feeling like a thicker black ripe pu erh.
[EN] Very good pu’erh. Thick in the mouth. Only the first infusion has a taste similar to white tea; the next ones taste more and more like a superior black tea without any bitterness, and with a touch of floral aftertaste and, I agree with another reviewer, with a peppery aftertaste as well. A tea I won’t hesitate to offer my friends who only drink black tea (and hopefully open-up their horizon a bit!). Reminiscent of Keemun (black Chinese tea). By mistake, I bought 100g of this one (instead of my usual 50g for a tea I never had before), but it’s not a problem!
[EN] I really like this one a lot. Just got a new shipment after it had sold out. Why no declaration of the year it is from?
[EN] I was quite surprised by this tea and didn't expect to be a good as it was after reading reviews from all over the internet. This tea is not bitter but has a light earthy taste with a slight peppery aftertaste. A good all day cup of tea.
