I got my mystery sampler packs that I ordered from 52teas. Shipping was FAST! Can’t wait to try them.

My Yunomi and BTTC orders arrived today.

Saemidori sencha, old style dong ding, and samples of biluochun, bao zhong, yushan, and fushou peak teas.

Tried the saemidori sencha which is good but not as good as the shincha I got from Yuuki-Cha. I noticed the pouches Yunomi uses aren’t vacuum sealed like other Japanese vendors. Could be what’s affecting the tea’s freshness.

That’s a good point. I’ve had quite a few teas from Yunomi lately that are just okay, not amazing.

Tea Ave! Jasmine oolong and rose oolong, plus oodles of samples and a steeper and a tote bag! I have no need for more tea but it makes me happy anyway so la la la.

Today I received an order from Whispering Pines. I rarely order from them because they are so expensive but they are good.

Allan, have you gotten your White2Tea club yet? You subscribe to it, right?

AllanK said

Got it but didn’t open it yet. Right now because of problems with my apartment I can’t gongfu anything so I haven’t even opened some packages. Most of my puerh is in a storage unit.

@Zennen, Let me know if you don’t get it in a few days. I have a hotline if you need me to call on it.

Zennenn said

Sorry to hear, you’ll have to let us know what tea is your first to gongfu one you’re able to again. @mrmopar, thank you! Hopefully I’ll get it soon. ;)

Today I didn’t receive tea or teaware in the mail. But I did get a tea related order. The Savannah Bee Company was having a sale so I bought a variety of their honeys including their Tea Honey which is supposed to allow you to still taste the underlying tea and not take over.
