Yep, I got mine from SpecialTeas a couple weeks ago. It's great!

I ordered it along with the Sungma, and although I prefer the latter, the Yashodhara does not disappoint. :D

I've recently found that I prefer brewing FF Darjeeling gong fu style, that is to say lots of leaf with short steep times. I can get about 6 infusions this way, which makes up for the amount of liquor it produces per steep (about 3 oz.).

I'm also very interested to hear other TC'ers opinions on this tea. :mrgreen:

Welcome Noir. Where are you considering buying from?

I have had the Special Teas one too. It is good, but as Nick
points out, the Sungma is better.

I plan to buy from specialteas, uless you have a suggestion for another vendor. Specialteas is currently out of stock, but I will be sure to pick up some of the sungma! Thank you for your opinions.
