Re: Liu Bao recommendations
@faj
I'd recommend the 031 and the Bing Lang Xiang, which means Betel Nut Aroma... It's a classic Ipoh style Liu Bao. Rich, chewy and tasty with good calming energy.
Am glad that they do shipping over email!

Re: Collecting "falling out of love with pu'er" stories from Blogspot
I like Islay malts with oolong ! As a fan of a good Islay are there any particular oolongs you like to pair? I would imagine it would take something pretty heavily roasted to stand up to something like an Ardbeg. Decent DHP goes well with Islay for sure in my estimation, as does a well done TLH but...

Oh gosh Noonie I'll do my best... I think that tea tourism is a wonderful thing and in the current situation, it's something to look forwards to in the future... Today was a surprise as I was invited to a tasting session organised by a major Malaysian tea retailer, namely Purple Cane. The session wa...

HKG is in the process of redefining itself. I watch with baited breath.

Re: Teashops...
DailyTX I figured as much.... I spent a bit of time in Shenzhen the past couple years, always on location and hustling for time and light and never got to try even looking for tea... And no one seemed to speak Cantonese... Was weird... But yeah, I did go to one singular mom and pop shop in Xiamen a...

Re: Teashops...
Nah man... Shrink wrapping for storage basically sets the tea on a path of retarded development... It's like purposely holding a child back from flourishing... Just my opinion, but stop shrink wrapping tea for storage... Not that there's anything wrong with that... If you really want to ... I mean.....

Re: Teashops...
I would say yes and no...at least for shops in the California Bay Area. If you speak Chinese, if you know what you are looking for, they will invite you for a cup of tea and exchange tea info and knowledge. The good teas typically are not displayed outside, so you need to ask the right questions. A...

Re: Teashops...
StoneLadle Awesome sharing. This was my experience shopping for tea in China. Go in to a shop, owner would engage you in a conversation on the type of tea you drink, and provide recommendations as you are having a tea session. Really missed those days... I'm totally interested in your tea buying ex...
