See, for me it's just mild stomach upset, a sort of mildly unpleasant, barely-there nausea, which is not followed by acid reflux/heartburn. It goes away after a few minutes. Only seems to happen with orange juice and sencha.

Thinking of putting in an Assam IV Drip -- I'm exhausted.

Darjeelings were my main focus this month.
If Oolongs lose, it will be all your fault! ;-)

Heh, back after almost 3 years. Wow, the forum has changed, so much info, so many TeaSmart people. Then again, my tea tastes have changed even more. TeaDay, very cool. I hope I can visit often.

My fav tea of the month. I came back for a tough question. It is close, but from China, Adagio Silver Needle. Or the new oolong ... Alishan. Flips coin and silver needle wins.

Wow, that's exciting! Welcome back. Maybe you could post a little bio in the Introduction to TeaChat section. Hope to see more of you.

Wow is right. Welcome back Shannon. Yeah, we've made some changes in your absence.

Dong Ding finished the TeaDay. The cicadas were working overtime on these leaves. :shock: Ummm, tasty.

"Wow" and thank you for welcoming me back. I guess I need one of the avatars if I am going to hang?

No real bio history to share, maybe I will do an intro anyway. Victoria, I love oolongs too. But I am kind of all over the place tea wise right now. :oops:

A 3 sided coin should have been used, one side for sencha of course.

JAPAN is my choice by far, I am quite skeptical about China and it's practices in all most everything. Guess I am just a scaredy cat w/ some things and China right now is on the list! :?

Japan, well, then there is hope for you yet. I will keep the ban hammer at bay for now. :twisted:
