My Shincha is not here either!! What's a girl to do??
Ah yes, brew OOLONG. I had some nice TKY this afternoon, and in the mail today came my first ever Korean Oolong, I'm quite excited to try it, but it must wait till tomorrow.

Actually, I have a Baltimore/PA dutch accent...whatever that is. I thought everyone pronounced water like wooder.
Just finished 5 steeps of this Yame gyokuro. I went with the more Japanese brewing method for super premium gyo. A lot of leaf, 6 grams/3-4 ounces of water(wooder) at crazy low temp of 50* C.
This is pretty mind blowing actually!

I had lots and lots of iced tea at work today. It was very weak; I've had rinses with more depth and flavor than what passes for tea in Texas.
Tonight I had some Okayti Darjeeling Oolong: http://anotherteablog.blogspot.com/2008 ... olong.html

Nice review, that sounds like a good one.Space Samurai wrote: Tonight I had some Okayti Darjeeling Oolong: http://anotherteablog.blogspot.com/2008 ... olong.html
I'm partial to darjeelings, but not so much towards Mighty Leaf.

Oh, dear. I'm hoping you're expecting a Fex Ex box with a new tea pot. We couldn't do without you, Salsero, if you were booted from teachat for indecent exposure . . . or maybe you'd get a year's supply of free tea from Adagio as a thank you gift? Either way, the suspense is killing me! Charge that fancy camera, get out the pruning shears, and brew up something special for us.
