The true taste of tea

Posted on November 27, 2009 by MarshalNJanuary 24, 2011

Changing tastes

Posted on June 24, 2009 by MarshalNMay 14, 2011

I rarely repeat the same tea two days in a row, and never with the same teaware.  I think one of the joys of drinking tea is to thoroughly explore all the varieties that it offers, be it young, old, … Continue reading →

Aged oolong of unknown vintage

Posted on May 21, 2009 by MarshalNJanuary 21, 2011

I literally haven’t had tea the “proper” way for almost a month now. It’s rather frightening, actually. I finally have cleaned out a few of the tasks I have to do, and hopefully starting tomorrow, will have at least a … Continue reading →

I had some keemun yesterday in a mug. Nothing harmful, I thought, but at the end of that, I could start to feel a little of that same headache creeping in. It was not yet a major concern, nor the … Continue reading →

This is a tea that I bought on the very first trip I made to Maliandao, three years ago Time flies. I still remember it being rather exciting, seeing so much tea for the first time. Although many of the … Continue reading →
