I ordered some more of these dragon balls, they are are great solution for days when I want a simple tea routine. I would even be open to brewing some “grandpa” style tea.

Basic shou puer tea. Very one-note, which is admittedly what the description says that it's going for.
I want to give it a higher rating just for that honesty, but for the exact same price, you could get a sample of white2tea's Waffles or Prosbloom. Or for a nickel more, you could try their Lumber sample.
Any one of those others is a better tea, and actually comes in 200g cakes that you can buy if you wish. Grandpa's is just flat in comparison.
