This is so good…why do I keep falling in love with samples of $100+ cakes I can’t afford :(

Terri HarpLady

That is our way :)

Stephanie

+1 for expensive tastes :P

KiwiDelight

One day you will afford it, though, right?? :D

Stephanie

If it happens like last time KiwiDelight, they will sell out before I save up. The Guafengzai I was in love with is out of stock weeps for GFZ

boychik

it is just learning experience. i cannot drink only pu i can afford.

KiwiDelight

Hmmm, Christmas bonus?

Maybe I shouldn’t try to rationalize.

DigniTea

This is a very fine tea!

looseTman

Enabling?

mrmopar

Agreed, love the $$$ stuff as well!

Stephanie

I can find cheap shou that is delicious, but I oh do I love expensive young sheng!

BezoomnyChaiVeck

Let’s buy this cake! =D

Stephanie

I DO think I want to put together a group order!

looseTman

I’ve not yet had the pleasure of tasting Tea Urchin pu’erh. What about this sheng made you fall in love with it?

Stephanie

LooseTman they will make you a set of samples for $30 if you shoot them an email! That’s how I got addicted :) This particular one I really like for its complexity and pleasant bitterness. It also has a wonderful energy. I just feel good when I drink it! My favorite cake from them that is not sold out is the Miles Birthday blend, I’d really really like to get a couple of people to go in on a cake of THAT one with me! :D

Stephanie

Yeah, I HAVE to get more of that Miles cake before it sells out…I need at least one other person to go in on it with me though :(

jschergen

If you really liked their 2012 Guafengzhai, they’re supposedly pressing a Guafengzhai cake this year again.. Should be 200g. Maybe more affordable?

Doug F

This was one of my favorites too, along with the Lao Man E

Stephanie

Thanks for the tip jschergen!

Doug F I have a sample of that, too, I should revisit it soon :)

Bio

Graphic artist, printmaker, lover of tea.

I love pretty much every type of tea camellia sinensis can produce. I like herbal teas sometimes but I can’t stand rooibos. I’m recently becoming a puerh addict.
