Thank you for the detailed reply. Both of you, Balthazar and .m. It was helpful, and encouraging, to read about treating the fuzhuan much the same as sheng. So: Mylar and Boveda it shall be for my fuzhuan. Will be keeping a good eye on my tiny stash. Look forward to learning how they fare in my envi...

On the topic of fuzhuan storage, does the Jin Hua spread?

I don't have personal experience, but have read that the Jin Hua can spread. That's why I'm keeping the fuzhuan completely away from puerh. Even using different pick and tray for the fuzhuan.

I don't have any particular experience with fuzhuan, but my guess would be to store them like sheng puerh.

While I'm not storing for aging or long-term, I'd like my few cakes to be happy (so to speak) while I drink them away. With ...

How long have you been drinking tea? A very long time. Hey, I'm an old lady. To give you a number would be pretentious and rather meaningless. My knowledge about tea exists on the head of a pin. I love learning. Mostly green and white teas. On and off between loose leaf and tea bag. The last few ye...
