Cracked open my everyday high fire tgy from tealifehk this morning. I'm not good a describing tastes but I know it's roasty (but not too much so) and sweet. I liked it so much I just put in a big order of it. Good stuff.

Ya that's going to be a real hassle. At least we have a year till it goes in effect. Second thanks to you tillerman for the info. so not in effect yet? Because I did not include that notice in your package… Hope that is not why it is still stuck in customs! Bok, just checked and its passed customs....

Thank you, sir! That was very helpful. I can see that this is going to cause a lot of headaches for people receiving tea, sometimes small samples from vendors. I've received tea samples unexpectedly with shipments of durable goods. Ya that's going to be a real hassle. At least we have a year till i...

https://teaware.house/collections/tools-and-tea-accessories?page=2 Currently 3 tea jars of 150ml and one of 280ml volume in stock for $8 and $13 respectively. Small sizes should be fine for airing out as you can keep the bulk of the tea in the original packaging and air out a little for immediate d...

Where'd you buy it from? This style is one of my favorite teapot shapes.

Title and also do any of you know of any online retailers that sell tea jars in the 20-30$ range? Bitterleaf has some but there a bit pricey and was hoping to get one a little cheaper.

I think this is the kind where you fold the bag over and slide the clip on:

I just figured it out. I thought you had to pull out the yellow part. Thank you for the video tho.

Interesting reads, thank you for sharing that.

i have one as well. if an english version is ever printed, i'd buy it in a heartbeat. i've heard that a translation is in the works, but i sort of remember someone saying that it's a long way off and won't be printed until the current edition is all sold. Damn, I guess it was foolish to assume it w...

I'd go: medium roast Wuyicha/TGY for the smallest (not Taiwanese TGY though). Dancong and black tea would also work well in it. high mountain oolong in the middle-sized ones, or balled oolongs with larger sessions, but nothing very high roast. This pot could also be used for dry storage sheng Big o...

I have these three yixing pots that I've yet to use and would like to hear you guys thoughts on what type of tea you think would go well with each one Edit: thank you ragamuffin I forgot to add I drink mostly oolong and puer. Aged and young sheng. Green and roasted oolongs. I'll also have a black, ...

You can just quote them, like this. That causes a notification to appear for them.

Ok, I knew about quoting but didn't know it sent them a notification. Thank you.

Depends how you define wet storage. I've more recently seen people refer to all teas stored in Southern China/Southeast Asia/Taiwan as wet storage. Nonsense, dry storage started in HK! To me wet storage means actually artificially inflating humidity, sometimes by literally pouring water on the tea!...

Can you pm links? I'd be interested in getting this book.
