My favorite 12/20/2024 ByHeidi mckee I began by purchasing a sampler after reading “The Tea Girl of Hummingbird Lane.” I was so interested to try Pu-erh tea! Of the samples, my favorite was the Sweet Rice Scent and I have ordered it multiple times. The fragrance is earthy and it brings back memories for me. Our responsePu-erh is a nostalgic tea. It frequently transports me back in time. Thank you for your support of our teas.
Sweet Rice Scent Ripe Pu-erh Tea01/06/2024 ByYvonne Chang Cannot get enough of it. Our responseLove to hear that. Thank you for letting us know.
A must try10/04/2023 ByChristopher Baker I'm a long time lover of red, green and white tea who is recently exploring the depths of Pu Erh. This was part of a sample and was honestly the last one I was interested in because my focus has been discovering the qualities of various raw and ripe Pu Erh of various vintages to establish a baseline of understanding them. The thought of something being added to "flavor" the Pu Erh was not something I was looking for. All that said, I loved this sample and will absolutely be ordering more. I highly recommend trying it. The flavor and aroma is a divine pairing of Pu Erh and sweet rice. Like green tea scented with jasmine flowers, it's a perfect pairing. It's something to experience to truly appreciate. Thank you Lisa and Bana Tea Company for having such incredibly high quality products and top notch service. You have brought so much enjoyment to learning about and experiencing my first steps into Pu Erh (and so many others have also said similarly). Our responseWow! Thank you for your kind words. It is so rewarding personally to receive feedback like yours - I am very grateful and humbled.
Everyday Favorite03/29/2023 ByBrooke J I discovered this Sweet Rice tea from a sampler pack (also note that I discovered pu-erh and Bana through Lisa See's book) and I love it. I drink it every morning. It smells like rice and has a flavor that is so smooth. Our responseI am glad you like the Sweet Rice ripe pu-erh, which is a very warming and soothing tea.
Good tea05/08/2021 ByOlivia Oldaker Great for travel or as a gift to a tea beginner, true to its price and description. Good tea! I'm still discovering it, so that's why 4 stars. Our responseIt is a good tea for people who prefer less earthiness in the ripe pu-erh.
Fantastic01/13/2021 ByChris Wales Sublime. I'm a raw pu-erh fan, but employing a lighter brewing technique with this little gem makes a for a very enjoyable experience. The aroma is instantly calming, the mouthfeel is gentle, and the taste is simultaneously rich and light. It's like a savory dessert. Our responseI am a raw pu-erh fan too, but I like this tea for the reasons you described in your review. Thank you.
Sweet Rice Scent Ripe Pu-erh Tea10/15/2020 ByKimberly Valerio My brother gave me a sample of this tea and I couldn't wait to order more of my own! It is so smooth and the scent of sweet rice is intoxicating. I use only half a coin and get numerous steeps from that half coin. I also cannot say enough good things about the customer service at Bana Teas. I reached out to them regarding an existing order and received a reply immediately. These are fantastic quality teas and their customer service is top notch. Our responseSo grateful for your glowing review. We are so glad we have earned your trust.
