2008 Limited Edition Raw Pu’er 02/17/2025 ByRaj This tea was great. After rinsing the leaves, I prepared them in a small clay teapot (150ml), following the recommended brewing instructions…
the first few steeps at 10,10,20 seconds were light, but definitely could taste the apricot notes and it had a slightly dry finish, but the apricot lingered…
the middle of the session was my favorite as it had the deepest color and the boldest flavor… still pulling a smooth apricot, with an additional nutty note, and the slightly dry finish.
The last three steeps of the session began to lighten again, but didn’t disappoint in flavor.
Very impressed with my first purchase, and will definitely be back to purchase again… and try another.
Our responseThank you for the detailed report of the Bana Limited Edition Raw Pu-erh. We are so glad that our tea met your high expectations. We are pleased to have earned your trust and confidence.
A tea to savor10/28/2024 ByHelen Ochs I've had Pu-erh from other tea companies, but Bana simply has the best Pu-erhs. I love this one in particular. It's the kind of tea that you HAVE to stop and savor, which is something I need in my hectic life. I'll try to read or answer emails while drinking this tea, only to be stopped by an amazing sip that makes me close my eyes and just enjoy. This tea taught me the meaning of Hui Gan; it's a flavor that doesn't just hit your tongue once, but does truly return sweetness. Our responseWe are so humbled to earned your kind words and endorsement. The rich mouthfeel and long hui gan are what pu-erh drinkers search for. We are so glad you found it.
Full-bodied Tea07/12/2024 ByGale Kaye My husband and I tried a sample of this tea, the BTC Limited Raw Puerh. We did not enjoy the first two infusions — the tea was almost tasteless. We have been enjoying the thirst and later infusions!! The tea is very smooth, no rawness, its is full-bodied and we both detected a hint of smokiness, which we enjoyed tremendously. I’m thinking of buying a tung, but would like to sample the other teas we received in our sampler set. Our responseSometimes the leaves are a bit too tight and take a couple of infusions to open up. Usually the third and fourth infusions are the best. Glad you and your husband enjoyed this "middle-age" pu-erh tea.
A good Cup08/21/2023 ByJanice McCann A good pur-erh with just the right amount of astringincy. Our responseThis tea is at its "middle-age." It will get even better as time passes.

Delicious tea01/18/2022 Byjohn O'Brien This tea absolutely tastes of apricot, very delicious any time of day. I think Bana Tea is a great company that offers a premium quality choice of teas. I love the ripe tea and now have tried the raw and love both. Our responseThank you so much for the high praise and the continuing support.

Wonderful company!09/29/2020 ByAudrie Haag Fast, efficient service, delicious tea, beautiful Taiwan.

2008 Limited Edition Cake04/25/2019 ByCha Kaula FYI -It would be beneficial for reviewers to know in advance how many letter space they have to review a tea. I was in the middle of a sentence when it wouldn't go in any further. This tea doesn't live up to the description advertised. Of course my novice palate isn't a good judge but at 73 yrs young I know what I like! I like ripe Pu'erh... There's minimal discerning, less pomp and circumstance (and pretense) less "wasted" tea and time. Your 7 samples and 2 others of RAW, wasted my time. Of course their vegetal... their leaves! A feint, feint scent or taste of this or that fruit within the vegetal arena is hardly waste the effort. I have enough other aspects of my life to be obsessive/compulsive about Aloha Our responseI will let my hosting company know to see if they can add the number of characters one can enter in the review space.
