Chip, yes very pleased with teahome's tea, they are my current favorite if you can belive it. I just ordered 3 more teas from them to replentish my supply until Floating Leaves new spring harvest comes in a few weeks. :)

I've also been pleased with HouDe, I've liked every tea I've gotten from there. I had an aged oolong (I think a LiShan?) (80s) a few months ago that was just fantastic.

Thank you Libertatis and Tenuki.

I have wondered mostly about Teahome. Teahome is a bit of an enigma to me. I have asked them some questions and their responses have not completely satisfied me...plus they are ebay. I read all the great feedback there, but really wanted to hear from someone here.

In the mean time, I just ordered from TeafromTaiwan. I like the simplicity of their offerings, the comprehensive harvest info they provide, and their 75 gram bags. I ordered 4 different 2007 Spring offerings. I am really excited to try them as this is the first time I have ordered directly from Taiwan.

But I will also look again at Teahome..and geez, Houde. Well, these oolong will hold me over for a while.
blah blah blah SENCHA blah blah blah!!!

The Red Blossom Tea Co. sells it for five dollars an ounce. It is not the best Tung Ting I've ever had, but it is quite good.

edit: Never mind, I just bought some, and I don't know what changed, but it is quite lacking.

LOL, well, to be honest, oolong is not my first TEAlove, that is green. But I am always drawn to oolongs, it is just not my primary TEAfocus right now. I expect in several years, I will need a change of pace...then I will focus on oolong.
