good quality samples 05/11/2025
By Peter Krapp
While I have not yet brewed all of these sheng samples, I can attest that the ones I tried are good quality - the main downside being that if you like a sample, you cannot easily procure more of the same. The upside is that your tuition money is well spent here!
Our responseThank you. We offer all the teas in all the samplers. Let us know if you can't readily find your favorites.

Once again this Bana buy hits the spot - the sampler runs the gamut and gets you exposed to a range of sheng profiles. Current favorite is the 2008 special edition
Our responseThe 2008 Bana Limited Edition is approaching its 20 year mark and is developing quite a following. Glad it is your favorite.

Puer Samples 08/12/2024
By Lynette Grossenbacher
What a beautiful presentation! My husband and I are enjoying a different tea daily and making notes in our notebook. We have already ordered more tea!!!
Our responseHow fun! Taking notes is a very good way to sample pu-erh tea because you can taste the same tea a year later and be able to mark the tea's changes.

I am still in the process of trying all the samples, but have thoroughly enjoyed the ones I have tried. Not knowing much about this kind of tea, I wanted to try the samples before getting larger quantities. I like the basic descriptions of each tea that are included. Thank you!
Our responseWelcome to the world of pu-erh. Learning about the different varieties of pu-erh can be a life-long obsession. Hope you will enjoy the journey.

Great Way To Experience New Puer Teas 07/25/2024
By DAN SCHNEIDER
I am a longtime Puer tea drinker. My main complaint about shopping for new Teas is that I don't want to buy a whole cake. Bana Tea's Puer Samplers are great! I get to try new teas without buying a whole cake and there is a good variety of teas to sample. I like cooked puer's in winter and raw puer's in the summer. The samplers allow me buy just the right amount to get me through each season.
Our responseGlad to hear our samplers suit your needs. Pu-erh has so many varieties with varied flavors. The idea of the samplers is to allow our customers to try them for an affordable price. Thanks for pointing it out in your review.

Great Sampler Pack for Finding Raw Pu'er Teas That You Like 05/22/2021
By Sara K.
I spent over a month sampling these teas at my own pace. My obvious favorite is the Bana Limited Edition 2008, it really opened my eyes (tastebuds?) to what raw pu'er can be (note: I'm new to pu'er teas in general). I also liked the Jinggu Bulang, Mengsong Spring, and the Mengsong Autumn, especially the Mengsong Autumn. The Little Bingdao 2017 reminded me of the flavor of tea brewed from camellia japonica (a species closely related to camellia sinensis). I was disappointed by the Speechless Eurphoria the first time, but liked it better the second time, so it's a good thing this sampler pack has 8g of each type, enough for two separate tastings. The Blank Label 2004 is okay, but I'll probably never buy it. In addition to this sampler, Bana added a few other complimentary tea samples, so that was a nice bonus.
Our responseThank you so much for the thoughtful review. The idea of the sampler is to allow you to sample and compare each tea in different settings over time.
