[Alucard]

I just noticed yunnan sourcing .us store is now offering Taiwanese oolongs and blacks. Has anyone tried them?

I haven't but the guys over at TeaDB have. Check their video reviews of a couple blacks from Yunnan Sourcing:

I never tasted a black tea similar to the Dehong. Quite special. Couldn't put words on the taste though. When I was done with my 50g sample, I ordered a 250g bag to see how it would age in 10-20 years from now.

Very curious to see some reviews of their taiwanese teas, though, and how they compare with taiwanese based vendors. Also, I'm wondering how Scott is sourcing these from Taiwan...?

Actually, according to a post by Scott on FB, he will open a new website (Taiwan Sourcing) that will ship directly from Taiwan!

Taiwan sourcing will be online in 2-3 weeks according to Scott.
