As JRS said, "time will tell."
If it's true for you it'll probably be true for me, if the results of your tastings lead to more OTTIs!

I plan on trying more new organics this year and maybe even venture into some roasted houjicha.

I voted `maybe'. I won't think about this seriously until April.

Back to work today, so I started the day with Jing's Seasonal DHP followed by Jing's Huang Guan Yin. Might taste some Kuradashi gyo later today.

I think so-- I honestly forgot how many teas I tried for the first time in 2010. I'll definitely try new teas this year, maybe more than last year and maybe not.

Rose congou this morning; rose sencha this afternoon and evening.
