youtube
There are some green tea related videos on youtube. For example I did a search on Sencha, and found some interesting stuff. I imagine similar searches would turn other things up.
I found a lot of videos on youtube now for higher end tea related stuff.
-Pu-erh brick separation techniques.
-How to use gaiwan properly
-how to use yixing pots properly
-artistry of yixing and the sculpting process.
-ceremony techniques and proper serving in public
Its helped me get up to speed rather quickly over the course of the last week (that and a lot of googling and reading and asking questions here)
Gotta love youtube though... its easy to discern the good from the bad in the 1st minute. Most of those tea related videos I have seen seem to be all legit and have good information. It also helps to strengthen and further clarify many of the things I have read online and these forums.

Ahhh the next generation of tea drinkers. Are they drinking something green, or smoking something green? Or perhaps both.Jack_teachat wrote:http://uk.youtube.com/user/TheArtOfGreenTea

***This organic blend is earthy & spicy, with a fragrant aroma & smooth flavor to captivate the senses. Naturally sweetened in the Kentucky sunshine & infused with natural energy. Equally delicious when served piping hot or crisply chilled.***
