Angel's Nest

Taste great, nice energy throughout the day. Great way to start the day

A great tea in a cute form factor

I was a little unsure of what to expect when I first ordered Angel's Nest to try. As soon as I made my first teapot I quickly ordered more so I would always have it on hand. I very rarely give 5 star ratings on anything but Angel's Nest is so enjoyable to drink and has a very nice finish that it quickly earned a spot in my top 5 favorite teas. That is an impressive feat given I have tried literally hundreds. I love the mini tou cha form too. It is a convenient way to carry it and is a great conversation starter for those I introduce to loose leaf tea at the local STEM center. If you like Shou Pu'er, you will like Angel's Nest. If you have never given Pu'er tea a chance, I recommend you try Angel's Nest as an introduction to Shou Pu'er tea.

This is my first time trying an aged ripe pu'er, and this was a pleasant experience. The first few steeps had a nice sweetness that mellow out with additional steeps. Later steeps gain a dryness quality, like red wine. While I'm not experienced with aged pu'er, I'm looking forward to continuing with this tea.
