Jesse’s Beginner Recommendations
Let me help you get started on your tea journey! – Jesse
Tea Only:
Jesse’s 8-Tea Gongfu Tea Sampler
For new tea drinkers, I always recommend people try a bunch of different types of teas so they can see which tea types they like most. This sampler has 8 teas, all of which come with info cards with steeping instructions. It’s the best-selling item on the shop so you know it’s good!
EU Alternative: Jesse in Taiwan Oolong Sampler Box
Tea Equipment:
Two-Cup Travel Teapot Set
This travel teapot set is simple, easy to use, and affordable. I usually recommend people to start with this cheaper option, and if you find you love teatime and want to invest in a full tea table set or fancier equipment, this travel set will always still be useful to keep in a backpack, at work, or for going to a friends’ house.
(Protip: This item has a combo option to also get the above 8-tea sampler and get a discount! Get them both to get started right away!)
Jesse’s Discovery Recommendation:
Sister Ai's “Everyday” Ancient Tree Red Tea
What is known as “black tea” in the West is called “Red Tea” in China. This fantastic 50 g mini-cake of ancient tree red tea comes direct from Sister Ai's tea farm on Qianjiazhai Mountain in Pu'er, Yunnan. Bold, strong, sweet, and just a little bit funky, it’s a really strong start for anyone looking to try high quality tea that is approachable to newer drinkers.
EU Alternative: Taiwanese Four Seasons Oolong
