I love the small glass pitcher! It's sturdier than it seems at first, taking boiling water with no problems. I love how precisely it pours tea when used as a fairness pitcher, or warm milk, and I also love using it to water my small, indoor window plants. I had to purchase another one just to keep myself from taking the one I use for tea all around the house.

Smooth, flavorful, and energetic. The quality is amazing.

I'm very pleased with the tea sampler. I especially love the jasmine tea but all of the teas are deep and full of layers of flavor. I will definitely order more and recommend it to all my friends.

This is the perfect tea if you love green tea, but tend to over-steep your tea. Having a toddler, most days I will start a cup of tea and be pulled away for all manner of toddler "emergencies", leaving my tea steeping on the counter. When I return 5-10 minutes later (occasionally, even longer), I know that the Green Mao Jian is not going to be overly bitter and unenjoyable.

We absolutely love this black tea! It has a nice, mellow flavor without being overly bitter when you accidentally over-steep it. Even my wife has become a tea-convert since I started ordering the Black Snail.

I don't have many hats, but this one is my favorite. I love the colors, especially the green hidden under the bill.

Organic Black Snail

Loved it!! So delicious even through a second and third cup. Won’t buy tea from any other place!

This is my second Little Red Cup gaiwan (needed one at home and one at the office)---upper edge of the gaiwan is generously tapered and the unglazed exterior means your fingers won't slip as you pour. This time I opted to get cups as well. My only complaint: the gaiwan and cups are both smaller than described in the "Product Details". Filled to the brim, the gaiwan holds 120 ml of water, and the cups hold only 20 ml (!). The lid of the gaiwan also rests inside, rather than sitting on the top, so if you pour more than about 90ml of water into it, the water comes up past the lid. The gaiwan size is perfect for me, but I am slightly disappointed the cups are so much smaller than described. I had hoped the two cups together would hold 1 steep of tea from the gaiwan, but they hold more like half.

Seriously, it has been so fun to begin making this black tea each morning. Although I really enjoy coffee, and looseleaf green tea-this is the one, soft, smooth, full taste which I turn to before breakfast when I’m headed for a walk, before a busy work day.

Awesome how this company gets it right and puts in my hands something that tastes so good, and was vetted, selected and is health-giving.

Thanks Little Red Cup!

I ordered six packets of samples for my husband’s birthday. So far all teas have been aromatic and fresh. We’ll order larger quantities when he’s tried them all and can decide on his favorites. Thank you for making these samples available—it’s very helpful!

This is a pleasant tea, and it is good for several pourings.
For the last pour I leave it out in the sun in a glass teapot and enjoy it late in the day.

This is the 6th type of tea I've purchased from LRCT and I loved the 1st 5. However, this really doesn't do it for me because it tastes a bit woody.

I really like the SS Folding Filter, it’s perfect size, easy to clean and keeps the tea leaves out of my cup. Easy to travel with as well. Sturdy, well made. 5 stars

The perfect morning tea! I love the smooth, fullness of this tea - it has a lovely flavor that's not too strong, but just right. So far I've tried Yunnan Black, Lapsang Souchong, as well as Jade Oolong and Golden Monkey, is by far my favorite - displacing my previous favorite Gunpowder Green. Yunnan Black is my second favorite and I'm looking forward to trying Black Snail!

Your tea is delicious and always delivered in good shape

This is such a perfect bottle. I use it mostly for cold water, but I've used it for chilled green tea and hot tea also.
The inside stays very clean, the lid is screw-on and easy to clean. The bold color and finish are so attractive to look at and use.
Very good quality! I'd love to see it in black, green and a bright blue.

I really enjoy the Jasmine- Green tea.
Have not sampled the others.
Thank you for your fine products.

Loved every tea in sampler. Will definitely order more. The tea bags are the best I've tried.

This oolong is one of my constant go-to choices for a morning gong-fu session. It's the slightest bit bitter, and a touch nutty, and delightfully roasted. Pairs perfectly with something sweet, or is soothing all on its own when you want something without high/grassy notes. 10/10 highly recommend.

I got the sample box as a Christmas present and fell in love with Yunnan Black. It is now my go to tea. The service has been incredible. Thanks everyone!

Great tea from a company I can believe in. Keep up the good work, guys!
