Nice honest review. Always glad to hear a "not necessarily" when asked about the value. You've either talked me in to or out of a sale, I'm not sure which. 😂
Thank you for the amazing videos Don! I hope you will keep them coming and I must say that when seeing such nice footage I am less sorry for buying the teas from you that I don't like that much :D
A friend of mine gifted a box of this to me in Shenzhen two weeks ago. I hadn't been expecting much from it, but my wife and I were struck by how amazing it's flavour was.
Hello Don, I'm a new subscriber and your channel is great with lots of information for any person interested in the world of tea. The quality and passion you put in your videos is excellent. I would love to see a video on Shincha (varieties, history, etc.) and also a video with the differences between fukamushi and asamushi steaming (the teaware you need for fukamishi, etc.). Thanks a lot for all the enthusiasm and information you share with us!
Good video. Hardly noticed how the minutes passed by. Very captivating video. To your question: is this brand of tea overpriced I would answer with another question: wasn't your presentation a tiny little bit overacted? :-) It was refreshing to see the action from the frontline of teapicking and tea producing! Loved it!!! Hats off to the 88-year old Chinese lady!!!
Is it overpriced? Short answer yes. Long answer yeeeeeees. BTW the timing is perfect, yesterday I received my pouch of discounted Anji Bai Cha from last year :)
You mentioned WeChat groups. I actually know what that is. My Tongan friend living in China introduced me to it and I used it to talk to two of my friends for a long time.
I have traveled to China since the '80's up until last year on business. I realize it had changed dramatically. Just an observation on my part as to the evolution of this tea.
Don, I saw a video about Coffee culture in Yunnan and how it's increasing and maybe even rivaling Pu-Erh tea? What can you tell me about this? Hopefully tea culture will never die.
Great video, the tea might be good but at 3 times the price of Long Jing or Young Gushu, I would pick one of those instead (which I prefer in taste anyway)...
The old lady is impressed by your enthusiasm

The Golden Rule of Chinese Tea : the Longer the story .. the more expensive the Tea. Nice video.. cheers john
China good health green tea happy peaceful
I love these trip videoes...I probably wouldn't have spent so much during your easter sale without them
Drinking it whilst watching the video... So satisfying! Also so delicious. Need to buy more of this heavenly goodness
I love the drone shots of the farmers! They are so cute!
Thank you for the amazing videos Don! I hope you will keep them coming and I must say that when seeing such nice footage I am less sorry for buying the teas from you that I don't like that much :D
Excellent vid. Hope for more of these. Anji has much lower pollution that its competitor areas even though they have the same variety.
wonderful video. thank you for educating the world about the process of making tea and showcasing the amazing people that do this work :)
It’s labour intensive but the hype probably contributes to the high price

Excellent insight into what goes on here Don. Love the videos and keep it up!
Great video guys, I think these documentary style / tea trip videos are my favourite output.
I’ll gave to give this tea a try! Thanks for the video!

amazing video!
Im only commenting those Trip Videos...and finally one appeared again :D
Thank you!
watching this while waiting for my tea order... as always great doc on a tea i hope to one day try!
I love this type of video when you explain how tea is made etc 😀😀thank you.
No body deserves bad tea
When I first travelled to China in the '80's this tea was never even mentioned. Now it's a big deal.
Welcome to visit China again. Today's China and China 30 years ago are two different worlds.
I have traveled to China since the '80's up until last year on business. I realize it had changed dramatically. Just an observation on my part as to the evolution of this tea.

Tea will never die unless drought which will affect coffee too. Thank God for tea pickers & qualitea sellers like meileaf
what a coincidence. I was thinking about buying this tea yesterday
Good video
Great video, the tea might be good but at 3 times the price of Long Jing or Young Gushu, I would pick one of those instead (which I prefer in taste anyway)...
What are your recommendations for ultra electric green matcha?
I hope I got the tea touched by Don for the extra exclusive taste 😄
Beautiful footage. Love the tea ladies smiling at the drone. Thanks for all your fun and educational tea videos!
Tea to me is like beer to my Dad - we go cheap because if we try the expensive we can't go back lol.
Is anxi bai cha a different tea or same?
@4:52 ❤️❤️❤️
Is this tea organic?
I see this is out of stock already. Will there be more arriving, or was that the entire batch?
That was the batch of that first flush although we have our high grade Jade Sword available. Type in Jade Sword on our website.
Why do you pronounce words like 回 or 鬼 as "hwee" and "gwee" instead of "hway" and "gway" as you should?? :)
And what an amazing video!!
Probably because the pinyin is "hui" and "gui"?
The anglicized pronunciation is certainly not "hway" or "gway"
@@FlandraLabs it's inaccurate but better than reading the pinyin the way it's spelled..?
1st comment ! OMG my fav tea is coming Thank you Don
Look at my comment... i was first 😂.
88 years old? she probably vividly remembers the days of Mao =O
VIDEO RECOMMENDATION: get a sips by box and try the teas inside and rate them and stuff
