   Buying tea from Fujian before the tariffs start

   This is one of my favorite teas and one of my favorite tea sellers online. I prefer to buy directly from tea farmers and tea processors in China / Taiwan.

   The Bai Ji Guan is also amazing

   Really good Chinese tea like this one doesn't get bitter even though if you steep it lots of times: https://www.wuyiorigin.com/collections/phoenix-dancong/products/old-bush-mi-lan-xiang-%E8%80%81%E6%9E%9E%E8%9C%9C%E5%85%B0%E9%A6%99-2025

     sadly their green teas are sold out but i really like their green teas

     you know how with a lot of japanese green tea there's that kind of grassy taste? i think wuyi oolong's cloud mist green has a bit of that but with the lightness of a long jing tea as well. like a long jing with a grassy (but not overwhelming, very balanced) taste

     my picks for wang family are:

     - dong fang mei ren

     - charcoal roasted competition oolong
     https://www.wangfamilytea.com/product-page/charcoal-roasted-competition-oolong

     i tend to prefer heavy roasted oolongs, that's just my flavor palate for tea

     but for white tea this one is also great

     and you can't go wrong with sun moon lake native black tea

     https://www.wangfamilytea.com/product-page/sun-moon-lake-native-black-tea (this one would be great for iced or milky teas and also straight)

     @hyc @tea i like red blossom a lot, but wuyi origin is my quarterly splurge. really exceptional teas, even a significant cut above red blossom and the other excellent tea shops and for a similar price too
