By the way, does Yancha = Rock Oolong?

I just finally got around to gong fu'ing B.

I'm quite pleased with it, if afflicted with sticker shock. :shock:

I haven't yet cultivated the palate vocabulary to meaningfully describe the tastes of teas like this one, which is too bad considering how good I find it.

Now that I see the price for it on teacuppa, I wish I'd weighed the sample to have an idea of how deep the wound is. heh
