Order from Chawangshop, including 2007 Naka Qiao Mu Bamboo Raw, 2012 Autumn Naka Bamboo, 2008 Ye Sheng Raw Liubao, 2015 Chawangpu Hekai Gushu Xiao Bing, 2014 Jingmai Gu Shu Huang Pian, and a free sample of 2015 Chawangpu Bada Lao Yu. There is no rhyme or reason to any of those purchases btw, except for the 2007 Naka, which I’ve been curious about for awhile, and the Liubao (curious, never tried it).

Also got some awesome samples from Grill that I cannot wait to get into. I am sure these will lead to more unfettered spending as he’s introducing me to “the good stuff.” ;-)

I got the cutest little bag of goodies from Liquid Proust today. Thanks so much! Can’t wait to dig into these.

Yesterday I received a boatload of oolong tea from Taiwan Tea Crafts. This will most likely be my last tea order for the year. I’m on a self-imposed tea buying ban and I plan to stretch out my current stash hopefully until next spring.

All of the above are in 25g packages. I like the fact that their teas are vacuum packed so I can slowly work my way through them without worrying about losing freshness.

Not pictured are a glass pitcher and a pair of tulip double-walled tea cups that came with my order (https://www.taiwanteacrafts.com/product/tulip-dual-wall-glass-tea-cup/).

It’s been a splendid week for teamail! Got a nice package from Upton with several black teas that are a huge upgrade from what I had been drinking.
They sent a sample of TI69: Jolotigo Estate Orthodox Java BT which just blew my mind (yes I know it’s cheap black tea from Java, but it made me stupidly happy). I will definitely order more of this for daily drinking.

Also got a mammoth package from Liquid Proust that will take me many happy months of to work my way through. It was so much fun to paw through and squeal over.

And I got a nice infuser mug for work which will be perfect, it has a hefty infuser so plenty of room for leaves to stretch out and work their magic.

Received my verdant order and my 52 teas order. Also picked up my august uncommon order last week as well. Good week for tea, though now i need to figure out the damage on my cupboard haha
