FS: aged (70-90s) black (oxidised) tea from Georgia and Fujien
I got both of these teas in Finland. No idea exactly how they were stored but there is nothing funky with them so I presume it was ok. The seller just said that the teas are "before the internet" :) 1. Georgian black tea 200g. Price 50€ This was wrapped in cellophane and it was fully intact when I g...

Re: Introduce Yourself
Hi there, In the tea sphere I'm mostly interested in meditating with tea. In practice that means that I'm drinking tea in the mornings where the point is to put attention on the things happening during that time (brewing, tea, my mind and body sensations etc.) and e.g. not checking my phone or plann...

FS: bunch of sheng pu'er (2000-2018)
Cleaning my closets tea sale since I’m not drinking much sheng these days. I got most of these from a scetchy group buy. They were stored in Taiwan until I got them home to Finland about a month ago so they are in great condition. Except the 2003 Jinggu which I bought years ago. As far as I know all...

FS: zisha kettle + stand and alcohol candle
I'm clearing my closets from unused tea stuff. In my experience the kettle has a nice effect to the water water and very nice pour (check out the videos from the imgur link). The challenge with this kettle is that it's easy to crack if there's a big quick temperature difference. So you can't put it ...

Re: A Serious Question About Bad Tea Feeling
I would guess it would be pesticides and/or agrochemicals. I have had exactly the same kind of drunkness from many non-clean teas. Quite foggy feeling.

Re: Bad storage pu-er cakes, vendor declines a refund. Any way to rescue?
Wow thanks for the great advice! :) I don't have a porous jar at the moment. I have at my disposal: non smelly big plastic bags, paper bags, cardboard boxes and clay shards to humidify the tea if needed. Maybe humidify the cakes and seal them in plastic? Thats a bummer. Who was the vendor? The vendo...

Bad storage pu-er cakes, vendor declines a refund. Any way to rescue?
I visited a Malaysian tea shop and bought a few cakes of 2003 Yellow Mark "B" then and they were quite good. Since the price was good and the guy seemed honest I ordered a bigger batch from home 6 months later. The tea is clearly the same tea but the storage is somehow really bad. The tea smells and...

Re: Global Tea Hut
This thread kind of spun off a bit from the original question about the tea quality. So my reply is concentrating on that. I have been a member some years and think the magazine is the best English source for tea available. Whatever you like about tea I think it has lot to offer. I've had many of th...
