DTH label cakes

by Ljung93 » Jun 16th, '10, 07:21

So i was just browsing the Dragon Tea House site and noticed that they actually have some private production cakes available.
They look pretty delicious, though the claims of being "Ancient tree" at 35$ per 400g cake, leaves me a little sceptic.
Also, there seems to be no samples available.
Has anybody got experience with these bings?

Yeah, No for me too.
Before I spend $35.00 I need a Tea description that leaves my mouth watering.Image

I'm a sucker for a good description but.
"the flavour is strong and bold." I need more.
** constructive criticism :D

I must disagree, the photos there are so screwed up. Take a look at the shu puerh, the leaves are orange...
