Customer Reviews
Ich möchte vorher festhalten dass dieser Tee mein erster dieser Klasse und Preiskategorie war und ich bin durchaus positiv überrascht. Die Farbe entspricht dem Bild in der Beschreibung, und das gelieferte Gewicht (ich hatte mich für die 8g-Probepackung entschieden) war fast perfekt (7,92g auf der Feinwaage in der Küche)! Wenn man an dem frisch zubereiteten Tee riecht erfährt man eine angenehm süße Note. Geschmacklich trieft die oben getätigte Beschreibung sehr treffend zu. Ich bin begeistert und kann diesen Tee nur empfehlen!
