I guess either, however, the prefer the yixing to be porelain lined so that I can use them for all teas. Can you help?

Enjoying Tea has a selection of Chinese yixing tea sets although I do not think that they are porcelain lined. If you order from Enjoying Tea sign up for their email newsletter first as it will give you a 15% off coupon code to use on your order.

Ten Tea has a fair selection of tea sets although I don't remember seeing any which included aroma cups.

So far, the only ones I've seen online are from the site Jogrebe posted. They have one yixing set lined with porcelain. http://www.enjoyingtea.com/stgoteaset.html

$2.99 for paired cups and a tray. Seems like a good deal.
