I spotted this tea while I was shopping at White2Tea‘s website. I’d just dropped a beeng of their Daily Drinker into my cart, and was browsing, seeing what else they had to tempt me with.
You have to love the fact that a tea named “Hot & Heavy” arrived just as our bit of the Scandinavian Peninsula experienced its first major snowfall of the year.
The other day I enjoyed a good, long Great Uncle style session with White2Tea’s Daily Drinker, and got to wondering how much the tea I had drunk had actually cost when compared to an average quality tea bag, such as PG Tips.
I’d been reading interesting things about White2Tea for quite a while, especially in the blogs of Char (Oolong Owl) and Cwyn (Death By Tea), and was keen to try them out.
Let’s not beat around the tea bush here – this tea enjoys legendary status, and quite rightly so.
There’s a term in Chinese, Chá rén (茶人), literally “tea person“, that succinctly sums up someone who’s life seems to revolve around tea, and no-one better represents the concept than Master Lin Ping Xiang.
When it comes to the subject of Oolongs, this is the kind of tea that I simply adore – a well roasted strip Oolong from the famous Wuyi Shan mountain area in Fujian Province on the Chinese mainland.
Although I’m very pleased with the performance of our Ikea Riklig teapot, it’s not perfect.
My post evening meal pot of shou Pu-erh has become something of a tradition, and I was on the lookout for a new tea to take on this role.
