According to what I can find, this teahouse was started in 1987 by Lim Hock Lam after he was exposed to Taiwanese tea-culture during his time as a student at the National Taiwan University in the early 1980s, and it started selling packaged tea in 1996.
I was made aware of this shop through finding a book on gongfu they published in 1999, A Passage to Chinese Tea. However, I have no experience with their teas. It looks like they ship overseas; has anyone tried their teas? If so, what did you think?
