I'm a new member from Colorado, USA.
I've been drinking tea for about...well 5 years for good tea, though even when young I preferred tea over coffee

This past November I received my first gaiwan and immediately took to gonf fu style brewing.
I suppose I average about 3-4 tea drinking sessions per day. Oolong is by far my favorite style of tea, I love the wide variety of flavors and styles available in oolong teas, and I doubt I could ever sample them all in my lifetime.
Lately though I've "rediscovered" black (red) tea...a style I never really explored much in the past and am really enjoying now.
I recently received my first "western style" tea pot (about 10oz capacity, with Chinese decor) and it's kinda funny having to relearn this style of brewing

I'll never abandon my gaiwans, but I think it's fun to experiment with different ways of brewing up a pot of fantastic tea

Anyway sorry for the long intro...I've learned a lot on the forums simply by reading older posts, and hopefully I'll be able to contribute by actually posting here myself

Take care!
