  DaYuLing oolong tea is one of the rarest and most sought after teas.  Grown at elevations higher than 2,000 meters above sea level, DaYuLing tea is exceptionally aromatic and sweet.  Our offering is no exception. We’ve found that the aftertaste lingers as long as two minutes, and that each batch of leaves holds flavor up to six steeps. DaYuLing Spring 2020 was crafted as a low oxidization oolong.  There are exceptions to every rule of course, but this indicates that our teamaster had enough faith in the quality and complexity of raw leaf to let it be for the most part ..read more

 Q: What’s hard for you? A. Math is hard. Reading a map. Following orders. Carpentry. Electronics. Plumbing. Remembering things correctly. Straight lines. Sheet rock. Finding a safety pin. Patience with others. Ordering in Chinese. Instructions from Ikea. Q: What do you want on your gravestone? A: “Pardon me for not getting up.” Q: What do you wonder about? 1. Is there a plug in the bottom of the ocean? 2. How does it feel to be a tree by a freeway? 3. Sometimes a violin sounds like a Siamese cat; the first violin strings were made from cat gut- any connection? 4. When is the world going ..read more

Thoughts on Vonnegut, writing and old sofas.
Buddha-Mom Tea

 Kurt Vonnegut once told us that there are two kinds of writers: those who write too much, and those who write too little. Between the two, he said, the former is the luckier category. Those who write too much must go through the painful process of sacrificing unessential words, sentences, and paragraphs over which they have labored. The advantage, however, is that enough material still remains even after the verbiage and wanderings are subtracted. Those who write too little must add to their compositions. That usually means writing additional material that has to fit into the already exi ..read more

Revisiting the sweet, rainy pavement flavors of Liu Bao

It is time to try something totally new, and after discovering Camellia Sinensis Tea House the same day I learn about Liu Bao, I decide to take them up on a sweet and generous offer! What I am told about Liu Bao teas helps me make the decision to try them next, and it is simply thus: It is a fermented loose black tea, and if I like Oolongs and am working on getting used to and opening up myself to Puerhs this is a natural progression of that interest. That's good enough for me and so when asked to choose any three teas by one of the owners, Kevin, I choose three Liu Baos. From the company's we ..read more

A fantastic and visually fun tea to watch unfurl with a floral and sweet, crisp taste! Floating Leaves Tea in Seattle's Fragrant Dong Ding is lightly oxidized and rolled in the style of high mountain oolong. It is grown with the Qingxin cultivar, and grown in the Dong Ding region of Nantou.  Notes of flowers and young fruit in the flavor. Broth is light leaning towards medium bodied, very solid and feels like a high mountain oolong with just a touch less complexity. This is the value high mountain oolong. The price is good and the broth is very solid. Harvest Location : Zhush ..read more

I don't know where to start, its been so godamn long. Oh reader! Are you glad I am back? All thanks to Andrew Goodman, The Happy Tea-Man for his inspiration to start drinking again! I am SO tea-drunk on Moacha right now! Also in the new beginning we shall discuss mental health, which seems a safe subject in this much saddened universe we now live in. Well, my angst after leaving California and moving to Kentucky 18 months ago did indeed effect my ability to enjoy tea, or much of anything really. I even considered going back to day-drinking, readers! And I am a mean red wine afternoon drinkin ..read more

'The view from the mountain. Zapffe commits a murder of necessity over yak-milk tea and pointless discussion.' OR 'Two old, useless intellectuals both die of exposure.' “This world,” mused old, sad Horace Walpole, “is a comedy to those that think, a tragedy to those that feel.” And even though he shrugged and hid behind his steaming mug of tea, Peter concurred silently for wasn’t Walpol after all, only quoting his old Philosophy teacher verbatim? Flattering, in a way, although the wild eyes and flecked spittle which rested upon his former students mouth was less than dignified. We humans are ..read more
