Oriental beauty in an equally beautiful orange beauty - make orange great again! ./download/file.php?id=12505 Bok drinking an OB?! Who are you and what have you done with the real bok. :lol: That OB must not be too bug bitten! Beautiful pot!! Wait till Bok starts drinking Shu Pu.... :D :D

Yep, raw pu'er has to be aged to be called pu'er categorized under black tea. Oh my…. I must have been drinking herbal greens 🥬 all along 🫢 Pure unblended 100% GuShu will be best regardless of whichever region, that will be decided on your taste preference. Then blends of GuShu + small trees. Then ...

Revisited the Mumyoi brothers.....

Two different yanchas today, one being roughly 20 times the price of the other. It's not really a comparison, since that wouldn't be fair, but it is nevertheless striking how differently the two teas present, even apart from things like roast and flavour profiles.

helotea What an awesome name to bring up here!!.... My humble 2cents worth..... GJZ is a highly revered master in the Yixing sphere. I strongly suggest you get it certified by a Yixing historian!!

In any case a good score. :mrgreen: Here is a similar one: https://www.facebook.com/singaporeyixing/photos/a.832737113475875/835286676554252 Thank you. That pot looks very similar...
