Dong Suh Korean Tea (Corn Tea, 30 TB x 1)

I have been drinking this tea as a coffee/ black tea substitute for a couple of years now. I have it once a day with my breakfast. The bags are pretty large, so I generally use a bigger mug. I add a splash of almond milk for a tasty morning beverage. It tastes mildly earthy, a bit like burnt popcorn. I love the flavor! I will say, a while after drinking it I do have to urinate more than usual. No sure if that’s because it has a diuretic effect or if I’m just drinking more liquid in the bigger cup. It’s caffeine free, which is what I’m looking for. I’ve recommended it to several friends who are trying to avoid caffeine. Just know that all information on the package is in Korean.

Perfect!!!

I tried this on a whim...read that it helps cholesterol so it couldn't be too bad...I make it as a cold iced tea in the fridge. After the initial sip, the aftertaste is like toasted corn, quite interesting and tasty. I always have different teas on hand bc I like different flavors. This one hits the spot as iced tea. Haven't tried it hot yet.

Good tea, but the bags tend to break open and leave corn bits in the water.

effective health supplement

I am a huge tea drinker. 10+ cups a day from pu-erh to herbal. Tea "hoarder" doesn't even quite cover me as I regularly keep over 100 boxes at my house with select duplicates of my favorites at work. I am so devoted I actually have a tea rotation schedule chart and a tea budget/buying plan out to March 2021. In a company of 1000 employees, I am THE tea lady (see attached picture for my qualifications :) ). My latest obsession has been to replicate the taste of some high-calorie desserts with zero/low-calorie tea. I conquered the orange creamsicle, I conquered chocolate mint ice cream, next was... caramel popcorn. Nailed it! Love this tea after my first try, although I think I was a little aggressive with my brewing method (I love a strong brew). It's very similar to roasted rice tea so I may seek additional cornier corn teas but I will definitely be purchasing this tea again! (EDIT: I take that back - the cooler the tea got, the MORE it tasted like CORN) A side note just a couple of things - the bags are HUGE. Probably 3-4 times the size of a regular bag. I actually brewed my tea in the pot as opposed to a cup as normal. No big deal. The one thing that bothered me was there is really no wrapping or protection for each tea bag. Yea, yea, I know less waste but with the stock I carry in my house? My biggest fear is BUGS in my beloved tea. Yes, it WILL happen if you do not protect your tea! And they will grow and spread. Not a deal-breaker, I will take protective measures and I will still repurchase even knowing these small nuances.

This my first Korean corn tea. I am used to Japanese corn. I will say that I like the Japanese corn tea much better. I tell people that it sort of tastes like liquid popcorn. The Korean corn tea os a roasted corn tea and has a much harsher flavor with almost the slightest hint of coffee flavor. I like this Korean corn tea, but it is nowhere as near as good as Japanese.

taste good, denser
