So, today listening to a dear friend's new CD, Priscilla Ahn's
When You Grow Up.
http://priscillaahn.com/ She will be on Jay Leno tonight! Will have some SLT ready to go!
Ta,
Chip, I've set the DVR (not that I won't be up, but I'll probably forget

)
Tortoise, (or anyone else) can you suggest a good source for
Rou Gui? Sounds as if it is a Tea I would enjoy.
Thanks.
BTW, I'm recovery from my virus (or whatever) and can now taste Tea again!! Was successful in not ending up in hospital this go around!

Glad to hear you are on the mends! I hope you enjoy Priscilla tonight.
I am still waiting for what is supposed to be a rock solid RG direct from the Peoples Republic of China, but I am guessing it is being enjoyed by someone else since it has been a few months.

Yes, music has accompanied my tea today. I was listening to a metal band I like called Bathory while I drank Thai tea and studied for my Thermodynamics final.
Thai tea aaaaaaaaall day today, probably going to have it all night too because it's just so good!

This one was a gift and it has been aged, I don't know how long. I haven't had any other examples of this yancha.
I might recommend the tea gallery's 'Cinnamon,' which, I believe is Rou Gui, having had pleasant experiences with a few of their other rock teas. But I would defer to anyone else's recommendation because, like I said, the one I have is the only one I've tasted.
