Whenever I purchase this tea, or any from Mansa, I am impressed by the depth of flavor and complexity of an outstanding tea that is available at a reasonable price. The Menghai 2009 is rich and rewarding, a wonderful tea to accompany a good book, or a stimulating conversation with friends. Thank you, Ashley and everyone at Mansa!

Was really looking forward to trying this tea, as it is very unique. But really wanted to write a review commenting on how exceptional the customer service is; Mimi and Ashley went above and beyond to make sure I could get my tea after the delivery encountered some delays due to mistake on my side! Currently enjoying my cup of tea! Would highly recommend Mansa Tea!

Ashley did an amazing virtual tasting for my company and i bought some of this tea. it’s very subtle but also smooth drinking. I normally like stronger teas but appreciated the light but distinct flavor.
The marketing, packaging, and ordering experience were top notch and i’d recommend this company to anyone looking to learn more about chinese teas.

The aromatics were elegantly nuanced with notes of sugarcane, damp wood, mineral-rich soil, shiitake mushrooms, and strong petrichor (the earthy scent that is produced when rain falls on dry soil).
The flavor notes were indicative of cinnamon, sugarcane, rain-drenched wood, petrichor, soy sauce, menthol, and just a hint of snickerdoodles. There was never even a hint of bitterness.
The texture was thick, velvety, and smooth. Texturally similar to melted dark chocolate.
The body sensation was deeply warming, comforting, and calming.
Overall, this is a very flavorful, yet balanced tea. Very enjoyable!

This is a wonderful tea- mellow with no bitterness nor sour notes. I was looking for a Pu'er tea mainly for its health benefits. This is my first Pu'er tea and I have been drinking it almost everyday. Hoping for the best!
Was this helpful?MTMansa Tea11 months agoHi Carrie, Thank you for your fantastic review. We're pleased to hear that you enjoy the tea and its health benefits. We definitely agree that aside from the pleasure and taste of drinking tea, its health benefits are the icing of the cake. Have fun with your everyday Menghai 2009 Ripe Pu'er! - CChristinedVerified BuyerRated 5 stars2 years agoWhat a find!
What a discovery this tea was for me. I never knew tea could be this smooth and without the tannin I associate with dark teas. And to hear how it was made and the fermentation process - I was really taken by it all. It really is the pinnacle of teas. The owners are so knowledgeable and clearly in love with the process and creating the perfect cup. So glad I discovered this!
