I loved this idea to see what tea Taiwan had to offer. If there was a sampler that had every single tea in the shop, I’d probably take that one too. Going through this box of delicious tea gave me a better idea of what kind of flavor profiles I’m more interested in. I was hoping to narrow it down to one favorite but they’re all so good… my only nitpick is that I’d have probably preferred to have a sampler with about double what that sample pack had, as a few times I tried to brew and just didn’t nail it the first time, but the second time I did better… I’d probably do better with more attempts. You should probably just go ahead and order 2, while tariffs are down. Go go go!!!
My pro-tip after my first failure (it was drinkable, but I was not impressed) on the bi luo chun is to pour the water into your gaiwan/cup and then add the leaves and let them float down. Came out significantly better that way, imo.
I say more problems cause after you try these your next order is gonna be like $200 cause you want them all.
