Default Ten Ren? Is it good tea?

I like TenRen loose teas. AFAIK their commercial loose teas aren't for
export. Their export teabags don't compare. I recently paid $7/150g
for bags of Green and TungTing. Another very good commercial brand
from Taiwan is Good Young. Again buy their loose teas and not teabags.
I've never had a bad Pouchong from Taiwan from anybody. So to wrap
it up, I like commercial loose teas from Taiwan.
