Re: FS: early 80's yixing pots

I'm interested in the Neiziwaihong! Is it still available? Wished I'd seen this earlier...was in Montreal in August, could have picked it up in person! I'm in New York.

Re: ISO: Teas We Like (TWL) Group Buy

TWL says that cake fractions are on hold due to coronavirus. I'm trying to wake this up again to see if we can split up some cakes. PM me if you're interested.

Re: ISO: Teas We Like (TWL) Group Buy

ISO = In Search Of...guess it should be ISO: Group Buy Participants FYI, I've got scattered interest across 3 platforms. Most cohesive summary here: https://www.reddit.com/r/teaexchange/comments/e90p4s/teas_we_like_twl_group_buy/ If I can get one or two more people, though, I think we'll have enough.

FS: 2006 Mengku Qiao Mu Wang Guangdong Storage

I have up to ~400 grams of this tea available, that I'd like to sell. I would happily sell for $0.22/gram plus shipping. It currently sells for $0.228/gram plus shipping from China, so if you're stateside and don't want a full kilo, I think it's a decent deal. This is one of my favorite teas, but I ...

Re: Whole room humidifiers for storing puerh?

I live near the east coast (central NY) and I've been running a whole room humidifier for about a year now and am giving up. Right now, in January, it can't keep up. I'm barely keeping 40% RH in the room with my tea and the temp is often in the low 60s. Most importantly, I am very unhappy with the c...

Ithaca, NY Puer Drinkers?

Hello,

Wondering if there are any other puer drinkers in the Ithaca, NY area. I love drinking tea by myself and engaging with the community online, but it would be nice to have another person to appreciate puer with in person.

Thanks!
Tom

Re: What Pu'er Are You Drinking

Home sick with a bad head cold, so I had a thick session of 2006 Mengku Qiao Mu Wang. Even with my nose not working, I still love the mouth and body feel of that tea, warming and medicinal.

Re: What Pu'er Are You Drinking

2002 cnnp bulang from liquid proust. 15s rinse, some humid storage notes in 1st steep, expected as it was hong kong stored. Gone by the 2nd steep. All woody goodness from there on out. Still lots of astringency for ~16 year old tea, in the 4th steep out. Nice calming qi. Another great one from liqu...

FT/FS: Yixing Shi Pao 185 mL

Hi All. I have the aforementioned pot I'm interested in trading/selling, it's too big for my daily use. See photos. It's lightly seasoned with sheng puer, has no chips or damage. The lid is every so slightly a little loose. I bought it at Fang Tea in Queens back in 2009, don't remember how much I pa...
