Had two cups of this yesterday, and both of spun golden sweetness. A fantastic tea, that is worth stockpiling

It is! You just want to look at it, and stroke it’s golden fuzzy leaves at first. I have another fantastic Dian Hong (Dian Hong, Golden Buds 2011) from the Chinese Tea Company in Portobello Road in London, and it is also fantastic. My friends shriek when they hear the price of these teas, but they are totally worth it to me, and a treat that I allow myself to drink on special occasions, or when I really need something to cheer me up.

tea is like books… sometimes you just pay the price for the quality.

Bio

An Israeli computer programmer with a passion for tea (mostly bought in yearly shopping sprees in the UK), particularly black, oolong and white. I don’t generally enjoy flavoured teas or herbal infusions, but if a tea sounds interesting and smells nice I’ll most definitely try it. I drink several cups of tea a day, usually one or two in the morning, another one after lunch and one or two in the evening. My favourite tea so far is Lao Cong Zi Ya from Norbu Tea, but I’m constantly trying new teas. Only in the past year have I branched into Pu’erh and non-roasted oolongs. Finding good tea in Israel is difficult, so I import most of my teas from yearly visits to London, or from online retailers. If you see something in my cupboard that sparks your interest and you would like to swap with me, then please message me. I’m almost always up for a swap.
