Floating Leaves Tea
Are they still selling online? It seems that the online shopping has disappeared from their site.

FLT online ordering back up.
Back up with a new website, and all the 2008 and 2009 winter oolongs are 30% off.
I just bought a 10oz bag of the farmers choice competition baozhong. I don't think she has the bag prices/sizes up on her site yet so you might have to email her first to find out how to order a bag of whatever so that you get it in the original vacuum packed bag. It's kinda cool to have the gold foil bag with the competition number and seal on it. I'm gonna age mine.

As it just so happens, I'm having the last of my Farmer's Choice
this morning.
It is a very nice oolong, sparkling and light, floral overtones,
a nice mouth feel and a smooth lingering after taste.
While it may not blow you away, it is definitely above average,
a very enjoyable cuppa.

Just to be clear - I got the farmers choice to age, I think it's tea base is slightly better than the honorable mention and the couple months since this harvest came in it seems to be improving. What I'm drinking now are the honorable mention and 2nd place baozhongs as I like them better right now.
