I decided to use this tea to anoint my new YiXing teapot, I blogged about it over here if you want to see the photos.

After 5 steeps of this I am feeling quite caffeinated so I think I’ll need to stop drinking tea for a while. :) See previous notes for more info.

Heh, I just realised I am following your blog without realising it was you. Doh! :)

Hey Amy!! I noticed you had said you were having a hard time removing the leaf from the bamboo. What I do is peel back the bamboo lengthwise on one side. Then the tea can easily be taken out. Like in the pic on this link:http://shopmandalatea.com/raw-pu-er-tea/150-gram-fragrant-bamboo-ripe-pu-er-2006.html I hope that helps!!!!
Thanks Garret!
One is glad to be of service :)
Wow!! What a gorgeous teapot! I don’t think I’ve ever seen anything like it!
@CHAroma – thank you, I was quite taken with it myself.
