Re: Introduce Yourself
I remember Fukujuen looked intriguing but we kept passing it when it was closed, on a main shopping street. I can't find my notes at present to remember others.

Re: Introduce Yourself
I did get to try some tea at Tsuen tea house, and it was lovely, and I bought a bunch of tea to take home. if I recall correctly, we were joined for part of our session by someone who identified as a member of the Family that owned the shop. It's not far from Kyoto! But tea was not high on Mom's to ...

Re: Looping usps packages
I had a China post parcel that was delivered to my regional post office right around the new year, if I recall correctly, but after Christmas. It sat there for something like two weeks before it abruptly moved to my local post office and was delivered the next day. usually when I see that arrival at...

Re: Korean green tea (nokcha)
I have been negligent of Korean greens from my Tea Buy Korea purchases at times and discovered them a year or two later and found them still quite delicious, perhaps not as fresh as they might've been otherwise but still very good. I have never refrigerated them.
Does that help?

Re: importance of $/g ?
I don't usually plug the numbers into a calculator but I do eyeball them and estimate dollars per gram, especially when the price first looks good and then I look and realize that it's for a smaller than usual quantity. how much I'm willing to pay per gram depends a lot on the specific tea, how much...

Gyokuro should be very forgiving and not prone to bitterness.... what parameters are you using?

Re: What Herbal Are You Drinking
A combination I've been drinking a fair bit lately, especially in the evening when I don't want to be caffeinated as I'm getting ready for bed: for the 500 mil pot, half a lemon in thin slices, a few slices of fresh or candied ginger, a pinch of whole dry rosemary leaf, pinch of dried lavender, pinc...

Re: What Black Are You Drinking
as I am reading this, I am sipping the last bit of a sample of 2022 Nilgiri Highland Black from Ketlee. it is completely unfair to compare this sample, which was delayed in opening and then sat open for a while before I finished it off today. Kettle tea is tasty, but now your post is making me long ...
