Well I live in a suburb off of Seattle (kirkland). So I don't go to Seattle that often. Where are some other good tea places besides vital tea leaf and that one in capitol hill.

I am not that familiar with high mountain oolongs, I am still working up to them, but there is a place in Princeton NJ that I know has a very good selection of oolongs http://www.holsome.com/site/

I have been to this shop several times and their teas are excellent. I in fact used to make an annual pilgrimage to this tea shop in my early tea years.

But when you get there, you'll have to decide... do I want the $45 ice mountain, or the $60 ice mountain, or the $90 ice mountain, or the $120 ice mountain...... :) (I forget the exact prices, but it's something like that, per pound.. anyway, worth picking up at least an ounce of the expensive one I would think.)

Let's definitely have a PDX tea roundup some lazy sunday!

I like the $98/lb one best :)
