Life in teacup

Is this vendor still active or they just simply abandoned their site?

I have sent them an email requesting current availability of a puerh cake I’m after and nothing, no reply.

It doesn’t look good.

Cheers :)

Maybe because of the Chinese Newyear?

Maybe. But they are not based in China or in an overseas Chinese community, i.e. Singapore.

I’ll wait a bit otherwise time to move on.

Hi bagua7, I have spoken with Robert from Life in Teacup recently. I had made a purchase from him back on Feb 6th.

I have recently received a reply on confirmation for my purchase.

I had been told they had recently been on a retreat. So I suggest giving it a bit more time. Hopefully get a reply soon.

Yes thnx for your reply. They replied to my message and sent me an invoice for the two cakes I was after: 2008 MengSong raw. Excellent bttw. I didn’t have spare cash when I tried this pu 3-4 years ago but I do now so luckily they have still some still stock available.

Cheers! ;)

I’m looking for some very good quality and fresh Long Jing this year. I’ve heard the name Life in Teacup being tossed around but their website never seems updated. I went there today to see a bunch of new harvest green teas, but no option to buy any of the long jings. Also, all the oolongs that I was interested in (Phoenix dancongs, Wuyi, Tieguanyin) are from many years ago. Anyone know if they’re still active? Are the green teas any good?
