    Sorry for not responding! “Where do you get your tea?” short circuits my brain. It’s a complex ongoing adventure. I’ve bought tea from several dozen online sellers, half as many little shops in various cities. Beyond that are teas acquired by trade & gift from other tea heads. Jtea? They’re great! But, there is no one place where one can buy tea— many teas will enter your life but once never to be seen again. #tea #teaculture #teaPosting

  2. When cold air dries your nose the perfect tea is Liu An. It also called “basket tea” as the compressed cakes are stored in bamboo baskets. This gives it a richness and a touch of the same mouthfeel as after a cough drop. The aroma is floral and a little earthy— there is something about it like honey. Today I’m enjoying some of my 2014 stash— it has grown perfectly mellow and I will have my husband and the role playing club try it too! #teaculture #tea #teaPosting #liuAn

  3. It’s no so bad to work on a Saturday when you have good tea! This is an oolong from 2013 and it has become very fragrant the aroma is a bit better than the taste it may have aged a few years past peak— although I love it when oolongs develop that sweet aroma! #teaCulture #teaPosting #tea #oolong

  4. The current active pots. This is in the kitchen cabinet where I can easily grab them. #teaculture #yixing #tea #teapots #teaPosting

  5. What's the big deal with all these little Chinese clay teapots? Why do some cost 10 bucks and others cost 1000s? Why do teaheads care about clay?

    A beautiful clay teapot can be:

    1. A work of handmade art.
    2. A way to enhance the experience of teas.
    3. An object that grows and changes as you use it more. The tea changes the clay as the clay changes the tea.

    So what if you want to get into all of this nonsense? Where to begin?

  6. I'm totally going to start #teaPosting again. There are a smattering of posts on the following hashtags:

    But, we could liven things up a bit, I think. And there seem to be people curious about what all of the fuss is about with The Tea.
