    • Hi Uncle Larry,

      Thanks for commenting. I think I may’ve misspoke. The first part of the month is Yancha and the latter part was cheaper Taiwanese stuff.

      Cheers,

  1. Very nice to see new people on your episodes.

    The only wuyi I tried so far is the 90s HK stored wuyi from Origin Tea. Tasted like old cigarette butt to me… Tried it twice and had a hard time drinking it. It might need to age a bit though, not sure…

    I should try some other wuyi some day, but they just seem so pricey…

    • Hi Bef,

      Thanks for stopping in. You’re definitely right that Wuyis can get a bit expensive. There’s some availability at different budgets though. That 90s HK stored Wuyi from Origin was kind of a different one. Not really that representative of the tea genre. Will be releasing the Yancha report this Saturday which might be of some interest.

      Cheers,
      -James

  2. Oh, geez you are an EE also? How do you feel about MN? My company has a no heating-element policy so we’re relegated to warm-ish water coming out of a coffee machine. Otherwise it’s a relatively tea-friendly place.

    Just brewed up the last of a bag of Rou Gui yesterday – loads of fannings. Gotta drop those steep times……
