- I’ll vouch for him. Friendly for beginners, lots of hand holding, and good social presence. Then, nice packaging, specific brew guides, etc. It’s worth the price to me but yes, a little expensive if judging by tea alone.
Cons
- I've never ordered from Jesse but the prevailing opinion seems to be that both the teas and the teawares are overpriced.
- The general consensus is good (but not great) tea, but way overpriced
- I just ordered from Jesse’s tea house (he also makes YouTube videos for most of his products) he’s a little pricey but the Alishan milk oolong was really good.
- while JTH is a nice curated way for beginners to try new teas it can be a bit expensive.
- I've noticed that most (or a lot of) people think that his products are overpriced and of lacking quality for such price

Tea wise I am also new... and started with jesse's stuff. It is "expensive" compared to some but the clean packaging and just polish on the experience imho is worth it. as a beginner like us it is IMPORTANT to have simple low choice options that are still relatively curated.

I bought one of Jesse's samplers when I started getting into gong fu style tea a few years ago and maybe it wasn't the best deal when you're looking at it from a dollar per pound of tea perspective, but I think there's a lot of value in the instructions and expertise he provides. The set had a nice diverse array of teas and very clear instructions (including video links) which I really appreciated as a noobie.

Conclusion seems to be, he's legit, but the teas may be overpriced depending on what you're buying.
I know there's Jesse's Tea House out in the US - their sampler looks like it would be roughly what I want, but their rep around here seems to be not great
