I got mine last night, and they'll have plenty of time to rest when I leave for Europe tomorrow for a couple weeks. Well, maybe I'll open this dark roast TKY and give it a taste...

Shipped and packed well, thanks again Poseidon!

I must say from my perspective USPS has always worked very, very well.

Yes, very surprised at the speed, I've never had anything but delays with USPS since getting into tea (and my brother has been in the US for years and we've always had trouble)... Pleasantly surprised and very grateful to Poseidon for organising the buy!

The imperial pearl was a delight, the dark TGY is a great daily brewer, the Lishan is very nice as well! The Oriental Beauty isn't the nicest I've ever had (only my second to be honest), but is perfect for daily drinking :)

Overall, very pleased with the price and quality, and I hope we can do it again when this tea runs out :D

If everyone has got their tea and are happy with everything, Chip can close this down!

Thank you all for being a part of this buy! It was my first one and I feel like it went pretty well. Look out in the future for more of these little buys from MT or possibly other vendors. :D

I agree with Poseidon.

I just barely missed out on getting in on this group buy, but I placed my own order for small amounts of the medium TGY, Imperial Pearl, and medium Dong Ding.

We haven't tried the TGY yet, but I love the Imperial Pearl. The Dong Ding has a nice chocolate/almond aroma, but I've yet to brew it and get a flavor that I'm really into.

I've tried their Qing Xin before (medium roast special reserve on the regular site) and I thought it was great

Thanks for the feedback!

I'm actually looking for a good Dong Ding (not the best, just a good one), so this might be it.
