Puer Tea

I just returned to the US from Korea and really missed having barley tea on cold nights. Although a bit expensive for a box of tea, well worth it unless you can bring it home from Korea. Excellent quality and very calming. The flavor is heavier than floral teas and more towards coffee, but wonderful on cold winter nights.

This Korean barley tea is excellent. The roasted flavor is mild and nutty, very smooth, and not bitter at all. I love that it’s caffeine-free, so I can drink it any time of day, even at night. The tea bags are convenient, and one bag makes a good amount of tea. It tastes great both hot and cold, especially chilled. With 100 tea bags, it’s a great value and perfect for daily drinking.

Not one to leave reviews often but this is a tea that I bought on a whim, and let me tell you as an apprentice tea drinker this is heavenly for a tea bag. I find it slightly sweet and nutty like it says but every sip gets better and tastes like a fresh piece of Italian bread when you drink it hot (weird analogy I know but try it and you might feel the same). Totally recommend to try even if you're not a tea person.

Good tasting, but not as rich in nuttiness as I would like— more on the mild side.

Cost is great, strength and value for money are good. Taste great from what I can discern from other teas. Good low cost daily use.

I love the barley tea at Korean restaurants. This tea has that nutty taste. I have some every night after dinner. Since there is no caffeine it’s perfect. I think it has relaxing effects because I get sleepy when I drink it.

I really enjoyed this tea. I love the taste and the smell of the roasted brown rice. It’s a strong tea so you only need one packet per cup. Since there are 150 teabags in the box it will last a while. I think this is an excellent value and I will buy them again. I am also so pleased that I will look into any other types of teas that they have them will probably give those a try as well.

I had tried both Damtuh and Itoen barely tea. Damtuh: The instruction says 1 tea bag for 100ml of water. Itoen: 1 tea bag for 1 liter of water. I had to use at least 4 Damtuh tea bags to make it as strong as Itoen barley tea so Damtuh is not really a good deal. I'll go back to Itoen.
