Through the ages, tea has been a sense of comfort and contentment for people all over the world.
This is my review of the Classic Tea selection from iTeaworld which was given to me for my sincere honest review.
This is what I received. One box for tasting 8 Classic Chinese Oolong Tea and Black Tea. The packaging is lovely with samples vacuum sealed. The teas retain their lovely aroma and are free from moisture.
The packaging is lovely. They insist on using eco-friendly packages that can be recycled. They also use soy based inks for packaging.
Gaiwan purchased from Amazon.
Souchong Black Tea has a distinctive smoky aroma and flavor.
OOLONG TEA- The instructions are on the back of each package.
Fenghuan Dancong was the first tea I tried. The package says this tea comes from trees that are older than 100 years. It has a flowery aroma. and a plummy flavor. It is one of the sweetest teas with a relatively high caffeine.
DahongPao tasted similar to the Fenghuan Dancong tea with a fruity peach aroma. It is one of the oldest teas.
Tie Guanyin has a clean and refreshing tea aroma. It is rich in antioxidants and is also know for numerous health benefits. It is a delicate tea with a slighty floral taste.
Minnan Narcissus is somewhat of as smoky and earthy taste. Usually appreciated by the ladies.
Yunnan Black Tea is the strongest tasting tea in China. It has a bright orange color and a honey aroma. The caffeine level is medium. It also has is full bodied, but mellow and smooth taste.
Yinge Black Tea has some sweetness and depth and Cacoa notes. It is also one of the three major black teas in china.
Wild Souchong Black Tea is the oldest black tea. Heated with Chinese Red Pine in the withering phase then smoked with aged Chinese Red Pine wood in the drying phase. The unique aroma of smoky pine and longan. I usually add sugar or cream to some of my teas.
I enjoyed my tasting from iTeaworld. Depending on your mood, choosing an OOlong tea or black tea can make your desision. You can
