Tea Tasting Schedule For New Oolongs


I hope you have enjoyed reading about our 2013 Taiwan Tea Tour. There is more to come, so stay tuned!

I came back with a lot of delicious new teas. I added 2 new High Mountain Oolongs to our High Mountain Oolong lineup. I am very satisfied with every single one of them. The Lishan Tea is complex and intriguing. The HeHuanShan is delicate and balanced. The Lushan Tea is full-bodied and bold. The Alishan is light and has a wonderful aftertaste.

We've also added a HongShui Oolong and a GuiFeiMeiRen. Both have a nice sweetness and are very easy going types of tea. Our Dong Ding Select is back in our lineup as well. Don't miss this tea because it tends to run out fast and it's hard to say when we can get more!

I was also very happy to add two of Farmer Zhang's Muzha Tieguanyin to our selection. They are just so solid and good, with great energy.

While I can go on and on about all of our new teas, I think the best way to get to know them is come and taste them. I am offering special tastings next weekend for you to taste these delicious new teas. Please grab this rare opportunity. It's only $5 per tasting and space is limited, so please reserve your seat.
