Dammann Freres L'oriental Loose Tea, 3.5 oz Tin

Smells great, tastes better. The top can be exceedingly difficult to open, so I'm always afraid that I'll end up spilling.

Delicious taste, lightly floral and complex. Love this tea!

The media could not be loaded. What a hardcore tea. This is so good it's mythical to me, could be right off the monkey kings table in the land of enchantment, I never knew anything this good existed. This was like my first experience with really good coffee where i realize everything I've drank my whole life is like watered down. One cup from maybe 2 bags amount, normally, of this is like 30 Lipton bags and this is way better, much different experience, I've never seen anything like this. It literally oozes a pool of wonderful amber syrup that just drips to the bottom of the cup off the tea ball and makes a pool of black tea and caffeine doom. I can drink monsters all day, i even get tired after enough at the end of the day, this two cup I initially thought wow this is good, little euphoria really liked the feeling not bad energy, but it's very slow and powerful, after about an hour or two I was nearly trembling for an hour or two in a good way xD.... incredible energy that really creeps up on you. When you see people gently sipping tea in movies, this is probably the stuff. When you dip the ball just mixes to the most perfect tea ever like my video. I buy very expensive coffees, it's very wasteful to get cheap coffee... after this it's the same with tea, I'm not sure I've ever actually had a good cup of tea ever until i tried this, and i have grown up on tea. I really don't like plastic bottles, I only use glass. Mass production of cheap bottles they find they make so many so fast, millions and billions, plastic threads from screwing caps get in on occasion, feminizing chemicals in some, they find plastic inside people bodies more and more. So wanted a real solution, didn't want Pureleaf plastic bottles, tried it once liked the tea hated the plastic, so i have a 7 stage reverse osmosis water filter with carbon filtering no chlorine no fluoride, and over 500 other chemicals and toxins, and adds 5 minerals for mineral water, and glass only, no cloths or bags. This is just the experience I was looking for. These reviews have horrible picture so I'm adding some nice ones. xD very nice

Love this French tea....let it steep into it's bold flavor....

I have bought by this product quite a few times and this tea is tasteless.

I really enjoy the flavour and fragrance of this tea and I highly recommend it. However you can only get one steep out of it. Compare to some other branded tea I get (such as Fortnum & Mason), I can at least steep similar amount of tea leaves 2-3 times and still get decent colour and flavour. Not sure if it's to do with the blend or brand.

IMHO, as good as breakfast tea gets. Highly recommended!

This is the first time purchasing tea leaves from Amazon. Our collection consists mainly of tea purchased on trips or gifts from visitors. This Dammann Freres Earl Grey Yin Zhen is a worthy addition. Initially, we tried a tea bag of this tea then purchased a tin of loose leaf. I have been tasting this tea for about 3 weeks and enjoyed it so much that I ordered a second tin as a holiday gift. The tin packaging and tea in loose leaf form appeared special. [Turns out to be a bad idea because both the first and second tins arrived with very noticeable dents. So not good as gifts!]The tea comprises mainly black tea (~97%) with some Yin Zhen white tips (~3%) and a sprinkling of lilac color flower petals (very pretty). The bergamot aroma is mild (or should I say delicate), but detectable. Less aromatic than most of our other Earl Grey teas. Not sure if we would use this in making Earl Grey ice cream (maybe we would combine two teas).Comment on the tin. Besides the dents on the tin edges (see photos), the tin looks great. It works functionally and in form. The air seal from the lid is quite good although I would wish for an inner lid because the metal outer lid may loosen up after repeated openings and closings. Just for keeping it freshest.AUTHCODE CO120620DFEGT
