I have a problem, THE problem, that most people on here have. I buy tea. I see more tea. I want more tea. I buy more than I can drink in a reasonable period of time. Then I get overwhelmed with tea and vow not to buy any more tea until my tea is under control.
Dong Ding oolong was the first tea that captivated me so completely that I finished 50 grams in less than two weeks. What is it about this tea that makes it so special?
First of all, hubby swears his only tea reviews would be, “this is hot and has tea-like qualities”, but could not stop saying, “This is good. This is so thirst quenching. This has to be really expensive. Is it expensive? This is so good.”
And it is. We resteeped it several times, and is reasonably priced to begin with, so there you go. Each steep was sweet, nondrying, and flavorful thanks to the light roasting. This is an excellent tea, and needs to be on the permanent shelf list.

It’s frustrating running out of a tea you love but also having 4352 others to go through before justifying buying more of the loved tea. Sigh.
hahaha yes!
I just had to reorganize my tea and move sone of it to a drawer so we would have a place to put food….
I definitely get paranoid about my tea going stale but usually drink it up in time. None of my tea in the cupboard is older than 2 years and very few is even that old(only matcha). I always want to order more tea but often the paranoia stops me.
