Re: Sun Moon Lake Red Jade T-18 Black Tea
Hey, GaoShan... At around $9 CAD, What-Cha isn't too bad, especially if you buy a lot of tea. I bought 400+ g of tea on Black Friday with a 10% discount and some store credit and paid about $120 CAD. ...What-Cha worked out nicely. Very fair shipping prices and, as you pointed out, some fine Ceylon t...

Re: Sun Moon Lake Red Jade T-18 Black Tea
At around $9 CAD, What-Cha isn't too bad Actually, Gaoshan, today, 5 quid is about $8.50. And that's a far cry from the $38 CAD I paid to ship 250 grams of tea from Taiwan last month! Thank you very much for your What-Cha suggestion, Gaoshan. Good prices for tea as well as shipping. I'll be checkin...

Re: Sun Moon Lake Red Jade T-18 Black Tea
Thanks a lot, guys, for being generous with your time and counsel. I haven't bought much tea from overseas in the last 3 years. Escalating price of both tea and shipping, and me working less. Last month I made my first tea order (T-18) from Taiwan in about 3 years, and what used to be free postage, ...

Sun Moon Lake Red Jade T-18 Black Tea
Apologies if this is not the right spot for a recommendation request. Anyone know of a Canadian online vendor with good Taiwan T-18? How about an American one? Thank you very much.

Re: Yixing
@Darbotek, you'll probably notice things have gone up. You might have to pay 50 cents this time.

Re: What HeiCha are you drinking
slipshod and Balthazar , once again, you have been extremely helpful. Thank you big time. Slipshod, like you, I've been dinged by DHL--duty and other charges--and haven't ordered tea from overseas for going on a year. I don't recall ever paying duty (I'm in Canada) for China Post parcels. Hence, in...

Re: What HeiCha are you drinking
As I'm on the threshold of a journey into An Hua dark tea, I'm trying to get some of the terms straight. In response to my Hei Cha question above, Balthazar used some of them. Please feel free to correct me, anyone, if I've gone astray. Some An Hua Hei Cha Tea terms : Hei Zhuan, Hua Zhuan, Hua Juan,...

Re: What HeiCha are you drinking
There’s a rich variety of teas within this category (to say nothing of “heicha” more generally), and the quality of the material used and processing has improved a lot just over the last decade. That sounds encouraging. Thank you, Balthazar , for being so generous with your time with that lengthy r...

Re: What HeiCha are you drinking
Recently was gifted this. Has anyone tried something like this before? Also how do you break into this? Seems solid as a slab of rock . Yesterday was the first time I took a bit more than just a glance at Hei Cha (other than Liu Bao, which I do drink), so I found myself perusing this TeaForum topic...

Re: Yixing advice
I've checked Mud and Leaves and they are a nice range of teapots, but I have a good "feeling" for the teapot on EOT, so I will go for this one! Next one will probably be on Mud or Yann Gallery 😁😁😅 I also have a good "feeling" for the teapot on EOT. I haven't been at this hobby for very long, but th...

Re: Yixing advice
Hello Guys! I'm willing to start a small collection of Yixing pots. I have right now two Pots, a chaozu and a Nixing. I've read this topic and understood that a tea pot chooses the tea! Although while doing some research I've found that some clay "interact" better with tea types. I'm looking to bre...
