I think you would be a lot better off with houde. Not everything they sell is expensive.
They have those 2 teas you mentioned, $12.50 for 4oz jasmine green, and $15 4oz machine harvested green oolong

I am confident these are of higher quality,cheaper, and faster shipping too . :mrgreen:
Ten Ren offerings have not impressed me at all, don't be fooled by their collection of iso certs

thanks for the tip. I am not sure how much I am willing to pay for tea-but I have paid more than that, so it's definitely another option to consider-thanks.

2011 Everyday Shi Feng Long Jing from Jing -

has a pine scent out of the bag...perhaps from just being pan fried. Flavor is nice with nutty overtones and grassy and floral undertones. Hard to beat this stuff for the price....though it did go up.

today arrived my package from dragon tea house with some 2011 greens. I opened the superfine long jing. I went 4.3g in using cca 80ml water (gong fu?, semi gong fu?) it gave 6 nice steps. The flavour was nicely complex, the sweet green been taste was dominant, but also the nutty and higher floral notes were present. the first session made a quite good impression.

in the last 3 weeks I drunk mainly young shengs so this was really refreshing
