Greetings: a West Virginia living in Chengdu, Sichuan

by jolef » Apr 20th, '11, 02:10

Hello all!

I have been exposed to good tea my whole life, but haven't felt such a passion until living in western China for a few months. I'm lucky enough to be in what is possibly the most teahouse-dense city in the world and frequent a massive tea market almost weekly.

I'm here to learn more, especially of western views of tea, and hopefully some more indepth China tea culture.

Also, if I believe I can fill a gap, I would be happy to help export some of the fine tea readily available here to anywhere in the world. But that is something to investigate slowly..

Best

Joel

Welcome to teachat! You'll have to tell us more about where you live and (hopefully!) share some pictures of the tea/tea markets/teahouses!!!

Also I'd be interested in knowing how you ended up moving to China?
