Kang Yang Chun Liu An01/18/2026 ByCatherine S. I got the 450g size because I was interested in the method of packaging the tea in bamboo. (I'm guessing the basket is not included with the smaller size.) If I'm not mistaken the bamboo has a subtle effect on the flavor of the tea making it more complex. Highly recommend this tea. Our responseThank you for your review. Yes, that's correct. the 450g basket is the traditional packaging of LiuAn. The smaller size is taken out from the basket. Yes, some bamboo pieces are mixed in the tea leaves adding flavors to the tea. We are glad you like it. Given more time, this tea will be very good. LiuAn is my grandmother's favorite tea.
