We have added new modern Yixings to the site. We are excited about these! They are made from ore that was ground with a stone mill, and processed without chemical additives (usually most modern Yixings use added barium to skip some labor intensive steps). We wanted to offer these features at a more affordable price than the price of antiques. We hope you enjoy the pots!

+1 on that. I appreciate shipping time to the United States which my experience was 2-3 weeks. I think if I order from vendors from Canada, it would take about the same amount of time.

Just got my first order - a gaiwan and the 12-cent brick, which is such a nice daily semi-aged puerh.

Put in a second order with them before my first one arrived - looking forward to trying the nanqiao bulang king!

We have added two new teas on the site!

The first is a Bi Yun Hao sheng from 2020: the Daniantang Gushu. This tea comes from a region near Luoshuidong. The aroma is pungent and floral, the flavor is sweet - this sheng that can be enjoyed young, but it also has the strength to age. It is more affordable than the Longui Guoyoulin.

The second tea is a new experiment for us. Some friends are producing excellent Darjeeling, and they let us know when they have an exceptional crop. This time, they suggested a harvest of the Tukdah 383 cultivar, which naturally presents a rose aroma. We really enjoyed this tea, so we decided to offer it on the site.

Finally, we were able to restock the Malaysian commission liubao.

@Teas We Like could you elaborate more on what is meant by "raw" Liu Bao ?

Of course! "Raw" liubao does not go through the pile fermentation process that "ripe" liubao goes through, and it's left to get mellower through aging. Thanks for asking!

I notice that you like to look at the leaves. Can you tell us the what you see when looking at the leaves to determine if it’s a good tea or not? I’m asking because I don’t get a chance to look at the leaves of many teas. Just want to learn. Thanks.
