One of my friends long ago bought some Ginseng Tea from his martial arts instructor. Now, we can't find the same stuff and his instructor moved back to China.  It comes in little balls (about 1/4" dia.)that seem to be vacuumed or something because after soaked in water the expand about double there original size. They look like little leaflets.  It's greenish and naturally taste sweet, especially the the after flavor.  I asked around alot about this and searched the web with no luck. Does anyone know anything about this stuff?

It's supposed to do a helluva lot more than it actually does. If you read what is written on it, especially from Asia, it sounds lke magic. It will give you a permanent erection, cure cancer, wash your car, teach you to play the violin.....Don't spend money on it.

Try the piano. Don't play it. Just strap it to your back and run up stairs with it.

So thanks for the input, I guess?    So what I should do now is get a violin, no a piano and carry it around on my back?  To tell you the truth I want it not for all the advertised bull but the taste.  I haven't tasted a tea as good since I had that type.

I sure thought you wanted input about it's value in bodybuilding supplementation. Silly me. Anyway, I don't think it tastes very good, either. Glad you found it and like it. I like tea, though. A good stout Earl Grey does me fine. My wife likes more exotic stuff.

Not trying to start a argument but maybe I should have been more clear.  As for the tea goes it's called oolong ginseng tea.  It's naturally sweet, absolutely no sugar needed.  The after taste is what really gets everyone.  It's kinda hard to describe but when you breathe in the air that hits your tongue is like a taste bud explosion.
