I think this just goes to show that there are no real definitive rules on pairing teas to Yixingsbritt wrote: I have had great luck with Yixings from Jing Tea Shop in China. They always recommend a tea for each Yixing, and although some of their recommendations seemed to contradict everything I thought I had learned, every pot has worked well with their recommended tea types.

A good discussion of matching Yixing with tea came up here nearly a year ago:

I think discussing matching Yixing with tea is a topic that will keep coming up for years to come, because it is so complex and fraught with uncertainty.pb2q wrote:A good discussion of matching Yixing with tea came up here nearly a year ago:

I looked around for this again. Billy Mood had a site at www.modeep.com ca. 2000. Users at rfdt talk about the site and buying pots from him.pb2q wrote:When I found the Billy Mood guide a few years ago, there were two versions, this one from terebess and another that was on/off available in the internet archive. As I recall the one from the internet archive was superior for some reason... images maybe? Additional sections? Does anyone else remember this?
The version from the Internet Archive that I remember reading first was the modeep site, which seems to have been killed from the archive due to the new url hawkers adding a robots.txt file.
