I Took a chance after seeing a Reddit post

I took a chance after seeing a Reddit post where someone claimed Pu'Erh made them feel "awake" and ready to get to work when they woke up.

The claims were true, I have a new staple! Thank for you this, and the free sample.

Ahaha I never write reviews so that's saying something.

Pu'Erh Royal (Ripe)
Volodymyr (Mansfield, GB)
Incredible quality, highly recommend!

I am absolutely in love with this Pu'Erh Royal! The tea itself is incredible: rich, full-bodied, and velvety, with virtually no bitterness. The brew turns out very dark — the color of cognac or almost black coffee.
I also can't help but notice the wonderful work of the teashop staff. The packaging and presentation are absolutely top-notch (love the handwritten details on the bag!). It’s clear that a lot of care and passion goes into their work. Highly recommended, I will definitely be back for more!

Not my first experience with green tea but this one is delicate and will remain my favourite. Excellent service, packing and thoughtful messages. Many thanks.

Light and refreshing

A light, refreshing tea, perfect for a late afternoon or early evening sip. Excellent quality too!

Golden Monkey Tea
Ken R (Bristol, GB)
Golden …

A beautiful tea, rich and full of refreshing flavour…I know that sounds a bit like a seventies TV advert but this tea, no milk, no sugar is superb.

V
Osmanthus Black Tea
Vivian (Torpoint, GB)
Another lovely tea

This is probably my favourite scented tea now.
I always put a little milk in all my teas, and this is no exception: I find it needs it, and it's best not too strong. Then it becomes a lovely mellow scented tea.
It has real osmanthus flowers in it, and I believe they are actually quite good for you.

R
Yunnan Black Superior
Richard T (Cambridge, GB)
Refined and sophisticated

Lovely depth of flavour and mouth feel. Not too astringent. I like it with a splash of milk, but not necessary. Almost floral maybe. Love it and will buy again.

Thank you for the kind review.

Lapsang Souchong (Light Pine Smoked)
Vivian (City of London, GB)
Love this tea

This is one of my favourite teas. It is hard to describe as it is very complex in flavour: sometimes I taste something like roast nuts, and sometimes even strong coffee! If someone gave me a cup I would not identify it as being like Lapsang Souchong at all. It does have a slight smokiness which is not overpowering. It is quite strong so it's best not to use too much at a time, as it can then verge on being bitter or "rasping".
I have dropped a star because I find it varies in flavour a lot even in the same batch but I still reccommend it.

Thank you for the review. We agree, it’s a complex flavour. We like this after a meal.

Golden Monkey Superfine
Lucie Watson (Dunstable, GB)
amazing tea

Golden Monkey Superfine Tea.
This tea is really tasty and smooth , delicious, not bitter, with a naturally sweet taste. I’m a real tea fanatic and have a massive collection of teas from all over the world at home. I travel a lot for my job and have tried many loose teas from different countries, but this one is definitely one of my favourites. I’ve also bought tea from lots of companies in the UK and abroad, and I was pleasantly surprised by The China Tea Pot Company – great quality teas , reasonably priced and very quick despatch. I’d happily order from them again.

Thank you so much Lucie for the detailed review with photos. It's lovely to hear you compare us to other companies from the UK and abroad where we've surprised you positively on quality. We'd be delighted to supply you again in the future.

Yunnan Golden Snail
Vivian (Bournemouth, GB)
Lovely tea

This is a lovely refreshing and reviving tea. I think if someone was not too keen on trying the China teas, this one is a good one to start. It is halfway between an Indian/Ceylon type tea and the more comlex or unusual type of China teas.
It is very strong and lively, but only slightly complex in flavour, but if you are worn out with work then sit down with a cup of this and you will soon feel better!
I have dropped a star because it's so expensive. That may be unfair as it probably takes a lot of labour to roll up the "snails"!

Thank you for the detailed review Vivian. It's such a lovely tea, and the smell when opening a pouch is divine! Sadly it is on the most expensive to import, lots of 'snail' varieties are hand rolled.
We have added 250g options to our store to offer better value for bigger purchases, following customer feedback.
