Steanze and tealife, which one of these pots do you think would be good for aged oolong? What do you look for in a pot for aged oolong? In terms of how it affects the tea and physical characteristics?

Had some milanxiang 2016 dancong from bitterleaf teas. There description is pretty accurate in terms of apricot aroma. Around the 2nd and 3rd steep there's a nice lychee taste and aroma, which surprised me as I haven't had much dancong and didn't expect a lychee flavor. Not sure how it compares to o...

I'm wondering what RH would be considered wet storage? 80%. I'm trying to go for dry storage for my cakes and have them at ~69%. 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 ...

I'm also waiting 6+ weeks now for a black Friday order from yunnan sourcing, it was a big order, and I didn't know but I chose the shipping that comes over on those big freighter ships. I talked to Scott and he said for this shipping it takes 7-12 weeks, but usually arrives in 7-8. Do you remember w...

I can only speak to two of there teas, the medium roast dong ding (non special reserve) and the dark roast TGY. The dong ding is ok, not as good as the charcoal dong ding from floating leaves imo. It could be it just needs more time to rest as it's quite roasty still. I like the dark roast TGY, espe...

Sorry wilds, I'll take the second pot of its still available bok!

Hey what would you consider thick? It seems similar to the other two in terms of thickness, maybe a little thinner. I'm gna do some comparisons with a gaiwan with each pot, and I'll try everyone's suggestions so thank you. If you take a picture of the opening without the lid I can tell you :) I'm a...

Aged and young sheng. Green and roasted oolongs. I'll also have a black, ...
