This is a sample which came to me from Terri HarpLady – thank you
Gongfu style
4g 150ml gaiwan 205F
rinse 1/3/3/5/5/10/15/15/15/20sec etc
I like this tea a lot. it starts like pale and floral. Later steeps introduce Lychee, grape, nuts and some floral in the background. its sweet and malty but delicate. even kinda Darjeeling type with some slight citrus. im not done, lots of life left in this tea. some steeps i combined in one cup, but tried them first. very nice and light. i think its easy to drink in Summer, its not heavy with honey and malt ( could be too much in hot weather).
Thank you so much Terri for letting me enjoy this wonderful tea. Sadly, Verdant doesn’t have in stock but i can totally see myself buying it

Yay! Another Win! I’ll be glad when my sipdown extravaganza is over, because I haven’t drank this one, or so many of my other teas, for awhile!
All the teas you sent me are fabulous. I need sipdown extravaganza. I should stop hoarding.
I have to get some sort of gaiwan or something someday so I can really try tea gongfu style.
I just tend to not want to drink the same thing so many times in a row!
You can combine steeps in one cup as I did. But did taste each time. It’s just different. I tried teas western and gong flu methods. 99% gong flu wins. I do it only with Chinese and Taiwanese teas. In other words, more leaves less time is not equal to less leaves more time
Gong flu ;) autocorrect
Good to know! I will have to look into getting something. Is a gaiwan the best option?
Hehe gong flu
I think glass gongfu pot is the best

It’s the best price free ship . DTH is very good company and I got it under10 days
I have several and use it everyday. SS spring filter is the best removable and easy to clean.
2 nd option is easy gaiwan

I have the same. Daily use. Good seller.
You don’t need a set of tiny cups. Useless.
Lastly, you need strainer. I absolutely hate dregs
I really like this earthen Gaiwan too. I have it in green & in brown, LOL

Boychik, both of those links you shared are really nice too!
Gaiwans…pretties!!!
Ohhhh that little glass teapot has a filter?! I might need to buy one of those!
Terri, I love that gaiwan fr Butiki. I probably will get it with my next order on Stacy’s Bday.
