Re: Yee On Tea Co. - 義安茶莊

Actually upon rereading the thread I realize you already answered my questions, but I guess to confirm most of the younger teas on the webshop are the newer storage (although there may be some stored traditionally for retail or other customers)

Re: Yee On Tea Co. - 義安茶莊

@YeeOnTeaCo Hi, do you have different warehouses with different conditions (like a "dry warehouse") and if so are the same teas with different storage conditions sold or priced separately? Also, for teas that aren't listed on the website is email the best way to get in contact?

Re: Looking for a gaiwan recommendation...

I would say the mud & leaves gaiwans, they are kind of expensive now though. This is probably the closest one they have now https://mudandleaves.com/collections/ga ... -brown-rim I thought they had one before that was a little bigger.

Re: Identifying labels

Hi, not every tea has a recipe number, and even if they do it might not be on the label. The first one is an early 2000s dayi, you will have to match the wrapper to see which one. The second one is a special recipe and doesn't have a number, its like one of the adorned in red cakes. And dayi is a co...

Re: Raw Pu-erh from 2020 costs more than Raw Pu-erh from 2016

They are completely different teas from different producers so you can't really compare like that. As to why young puerh can be more expensive than aged, the price of raw material depends on the market and it tends to go up, so depending on how a vendor does their pricing the older cakes might end ...

I do have a 60ml hongni set which I was planning to list once I finish unpacking my tea ware.
Can you post some pics of the pot after you unpack it?

Re: Push notifications -- a useful feature?

The only think that I think is missing-- and maybe this is already available-- is to have galleries of seals/signatures/forms organized by potter. This could be an enormous resource so long as it is carefully curated. Risks might be copyright infringement on images taken by others of these works, w...
