Re: Longjing: Sources and Brewing

I got a 50g bag from What-Cha once and I did it grandpa style mostly. Expensive but good, though I don't really have much to compare it to. I might get a bag or two from YS when I make my next order.

Re: Silver teapots?

There is a shop in Wuyishan with a large silver teapot and kettle selection. Here is a photo of some of their larger kettles. They also have smaller teapots both yixing inspired and side handled. I asked about prices on the smaller pieces, similar to YS and CL, they seem to be generally in line. De...

Re: What Pu'er Are You Drinking

2009 Yiwu from White2Tea. Quite young for its age but that's why I love it. It's quite sweet but you can taste that it does have some younger raw notes in there.

Re: Introduce Yourself

I've drank tea for a long time but I started drinking loose leaf after the Christmas of 2014 so almost three years ago. What kind of tea do you drink? I started by gett...
