The tea I see in your pictures is a taiwanese high mountain oolong, it looks high quality and handpicked. How much does it cost, where is it from (the region in taiwan), and how was it made, oxidation level, baked, high fired or not etc.

If you liked it, than welcome to the world of oolong, these are wonderful teas, most of the veteran tea drinkers drink oolong and puerh, they are always complaining about the quality, that gets worst every year, because "if you make tea for money, your tea will taste like money".

I'm a bit confused as to what the definition of "Master" is here. Usually in Taiwan, and some parts of China a tea master refers to someone who has a certain amount of experience making tea. Much like the guild system recognizes master craftsmen of various trades like woodworking. Do you mean master's who have won awards for their teas?

Mr. Yoshiaki Hirumy, comes from near Iruma city, Saitama prefecture. Hiruma has a remarkable plantation, which produced numerous award-winning masterpieces of tea. So I think, we can call him a Master. For me, it is. The same with Mr. Lao Ming, maybe He has some "title" , I dont know. But for me, he is a master. You can read something about this tea here:
