So every Spring i eagerly await the arrival of the fresh spring white teas. They ARE the perfect cup of tea on a hot day. I am especially a fan of the White Peony King. I was heart broken to find out that this year there was just not enough to go around... Was anyone able to get a hold of some?

Yup, was tasting 2 grades of White Peony in July from the Tea Gallery. Not a good year for Fu Ding tea I must say.

I've been eagerly awaiting the appearance of the 2010 Rishi Fuding Grand Cru. The 2009 harvest was sold out before Chip distributed the OTTI. Do I have reason to be pessimistic about the 2010 harvest?
