Hi guys, we have another GB running focusing on well-regarded Xiaguan productions between 8 and 14 years old. Read the info document linked in the blog post above if you have no idea what I'm talking about.

Buy-in will be $30-40USD plus shipping from LA to you. International peeps, count on 9-16oz final package weight.

Base Set:
2007 Golden Silk Tuo (400g)
2010 LiBin Tuo (400g)
2005 YinCang YuEr Tuo (400g)
2009 KK (357g)
2006 FT 8653-6 (357g)

Fancy Set:
2004 FT 8653-3+1 (357g)
2006 Recipe #4 Pink-G (400g)
2005 8653-5 (357g)

The base teas are sourced straight from mx-tea, while the fancy(ish) teas are sourced from private Taiwan vendors with a strong track record. This buy is less of a gamble, and more a horizontal/diagonal tasting set so that people can get a reasonable grasp of what Xiaguan productions have to offer at various stages of middle-age, given clean moderate storage intensity. It’s also a good opportunity to see how better Xiaguan productions compare to often-much-costlier Dayi productions of similar vintage.
