It's already 2026 and I got myself a tin of Theet Lo Han. The tin has 50 hand wrapped paper packets of tea. Theet Lo Han is how you pronounced this tea in Fujian dialect while Tie Lo Han is the mandarin pronunciation. Kenny the CEO of Pek Sin Choon was at the shop and he treated me to a hot bowl of Chinese dessert as well as a session of tea.
I happened to have a few packets of Theet Lo Han that I had kept for more than 10 years and proceeded to have a tea session at home.
This is not a top shelf tea. I considered that this tea would be a mid range grade. In Singapore this tea is normally drank in restaurants or shops that serve pork ribs tea (a popular Chinese meal eaten with a bowl of rice).
The older packet which I brewed has some aged taste. Overall this is an inexpensive tea and I would recommend this tea for its traditional packing...... and it's a tea from a Singapore teashop as well.
