Tai Ping Hou Kui from Anhui. New to me, and very tasty. Pale yellow-green in a white porcelain cup. Delicate on the first sip, but powerful and mouth-filling on the midpalate and long finish. Orchid fragrance predominates. The tea is lightly sweet and mildly tannic. A very satisfying and beautiful tea.

well worth the money

A bit more muting than I expected, but the pot itself is visually nice and is great for certain teas. The handle is kind of small for my fingers so I usually pinch the handle with my middle finger and thumb and use my pointer finger to keep the lid on.

An adventure in form and content. This is the way of tea we like to keep. Amanda from Formocha in Amsterdam imported this in 2008(?). Brings back fond memories. "Tai Ping Hou Kui" where have you been so long? And why are you so long? Thank you Amanda. And John of course: +++++.

One might probably be inclined to look only at the other BiLuoChun, the 2022 vintage++++, almost the same price as this 2021+++btw. But, believe me, do not look any further. I must confess I did not test 2022++++! This is the one. I am overjoyed by all the liquid secrets, the magic I missed for so long from contemporary BiLuo's. The last time I tasted this quality is from around 2010 or earlier. Does my memory serve me well?? Is it nostalgia?
The service, shipping and packaging of King Tea Mall are really out of sight, speed of light. For John: +++++

I looked up the luoshuidong tea area on Google earth. The photos showed a rugged, natural, and beautiful landscape. That's how this tea is, rustic and beautiful! And in an interesting 100g format:)

Like the title says, this is aged mao cha, the price has increased a lot over the last 4 years, it has doubled actually, and this is still a good option for someone who wants to put it away into storage or even drink now. Just my 4 years of storing this cake, transformed it into a tea that tasted like it was stored 8 years. So maybe price doubled because this tea has a magic tendency to age at double speed? :) It's not an exaggeration, it really does age quickly, and it's a good choice for daily drinking or for long term aging. If you like Xiaguan's typical taste, you will be happy with this tea. I bought 3 cakes of this total from various sources so my opinions are based on aging and drinking those 3 cakes.

Perfect replacement for torn/detoriated wrappers. Good sized, and paper seems durable. I only wish I would have bought more as they are relatively cheap, and difficult to find within the US. Will have to snag a few more with my next order.

Perfect fit for daily drink!

nice daily drinker

Очень понравился вкус с 3 заварки. Первые две после пролива имеют разный вкус. Очень интересно! Однозначно нужно будет заказать плюшку побольше.

I bought a whole kilogram of this tea and I’m happy for it. It’s a solid daily drink.

I really loved it, it fits perfectly and the material is first class. Totally happy with my purchase

These cups are great, they all match very well, and they hold a good amount of liquid

A very delicious tea! Pleasant and smooth if not brewed too hot or too long, and perfect for drinking late at night! I swear it makes me as pleasantly sleepy as a glass of warm milk, as if there's no caffeine in it at all.
