First time with company and Ali Shan tea

Presentation is good with it's own caddy which is nice. The tea is not as ready to be infused as some I've had, but it's flavour was delicious despite the wait. Perhaps try a different infuser next time.

Hello, Mrs Gillespie

Thank you so much for sharing your feedback! We are thrilled to hear that you enjoyed the delicious flavour profile of our Ali Shan Oolong and that you appreciated the presentation of the caddy.

Because our Ali Shan tea leaves are tightly rolled into pellets, traditional for high mountain Jin Xuan Oolongs, they do take a little extra time to slowly unfurl and release their full, buttery sweetness and apricot notes.

Your idea to experiment with a different infuser is spot on! For tightly rolled leaves, we highly recommend using a spacious infuser basket or a teapot, rather than a small tea ball. Giving the leaves plenty of room to expand allows the water to circulate freely, which should help speed up the infusion process and deliver that exquisite flavour even faster.

Thank you again for your review, and happy brewing!

Many Thanks,
The Tea Makers of London

Fabulous tea, impeccable service, easy to order. Who could ask for more?

Fabulous tea, impeccable service, easy to order...who could ask for more? Truly, some of the finest teas I've ever tasted. I was introduced to their teas at the Montague on the Park hotel in London. Their teas are authentic and delicious. I live in California and, after the disruption caused by the current usa government, am loving being able to get their tea again. Quick, easy order and 4 day delivery from the UK! Brilliant!

Hello, P Jones

Thank you so much for taking the time to share your delightful review! We are absolutely thrilled to hear that our back in stock notification worked seamlessly for you and that your order arrived swiftly.

Our authentic, aged raw Pu-erh is truly labour of love, from the meticulous sun drying and five year aging process in the Yunnan province to the rich, earthy infusion in your cup. It is wonderful to know that its complex, musky characters were so enthusiastically enjoyed!

We truly appreciate your support and look forward to supplying your next favourite brew.

I was having Pu err in France and I found very difficult to have it here . I have both the block and the loose one and I do not want any other tea now, apart from herbal teas.It is not just the flavour. It really makes me feel well and I am now more and more having it instead of coffee in the morning. And the presentation is so good. Thank you for the nice box gift with a selection of teas !

Well good and a nice tea leaves and it is Sencha but the pricing is to expensive for a less than a 100 grams.

Hello, Elvin

Thank you so much for taking the time to share your feedback! We are thrilled to hear that you enjoyed the quality and taste of our Japanese Sencha, and that you appreciated the beautiful tea leaves.

We completely understand that the pricing is an investment for under 100g. We source this particular Sencha from a highly prized spring flush in the historic Ise Bay district, grown on a specialized farm cultivated by Yosh Tsutsumi. Because this luxury tea is harvested in small, careful batches, the cost reflects the premium craftsmanship and rare quality of the leaves.

That being said, we truly value your feedback regarding the price point and volume, and we will certainly share this with our team. We hope you continue to enjoy your refreshing brews!

Many Thanks,

Teamakers Tea is the Tastiest.

Teamakers Tea is outstanding. I am thankful that living in Canada I can still access it. So thank you for organizing international shipment.
But - would be good to learn ahead of time that recipient has to pay duties.

However, we understand how easily these details can be missed during the excitement of ordering. Your feedback is incredibly valuable, and we will look into ways to make this information even more prominent for our international customers in the future.
