Brian ★★★★★ Nov 5, 2026

First steep came out so smooth and round, no bitterness at all even when I accidentally left it a minute too long. Those golden tips really do something to the sweetness.

William N. ★★★★★ Nov 3, 2026

Steeped this at just under boiling for about three minutes and got that soft, round sweetness they describe. The big leaves with the golden tips unfurl nicely in the pot. Mellow enough to drink plain, no milk needed.

The golden tips are what sold me, and they really do give it that lightly sweet, round flavor. Even after a second steep it stays smooth, so a little goes a long way.
