QUOTE(auronthas @ Jun 26 2011, 11:28 AM) How much is Liu Bao per kg? I bought 1 basket Liu Bao (Guangxi Wuzhou, 'Three Crane' brand) approx. 5.6kg for RM 180. It depends on age and grade. I think you bought at good price. 3 cranes brand are more expensive liu bao tea. The puer tea you got also quite good.   |

QUOTE(auhckw @ Jun 25 2011, 07:04 PM) 2005 Liu Bao (Golden Award from Tea Expo) - This is one out of the forty blind tasting samples sent out to participants interested to try before the Expo. It eventually won the gold award after being voted by hundreds of tea drinkers. It is the only Liu Bao that won the gold award. Senior tasted again last night at his home and he was very satisfied with how it performed. 1 to 6 brew maintain, 7 to 10 slight drop, 11 onwards drop a lot but still gives the light sweet taste. On the 8th onwards there is some 'zhang xiang' taste. He went this morning to buy a few more kg... I was with a senior today, and he was saying he don't want to try/buy cause it will be just another Liubao and he has plenty (young and very old). Eventually we went to try. And we were suprised how good it is at the price. The taste is very good for a young liubao. Very warm feeling when drinking. Strong aroma and deep flavored. As it gets lighter from many infusions, it remains sweet. It gives a very longlasting overtaste. The booth that is selling this is crowded with people and most of them are all praising it. Eventually we bought it » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « and I decided to go on the last minute before the expo is over and got another 1kg + 200g I asked how to identify the liu bao... she said by the number 85122 on the basket wrapping and the printing on the basket itself.

Myanmar Tea - This is the first time I am drinking this. And I am impressed by it. It gives a satisfying nice aroma and taste like raw puerh of age 7 to 10 years old. Quite strong but yet smooth. Bitter sweet aftertaste. Very strong 'chi' that made me feel warm even in my office's cold aircond room. My head went a bit spinning after drinking few infusions.

Did you try the ChaShuWang (or so call Copycat )? Not so fair to "brand" them copycat as they have courage to own up to it for a fair competition but.... their price if I'm not wrong in only about 20 or 30 percent of Taetea. I went to the fair on the first and last day (last day for bargain hunt), the so called CC was sold out and did't got a chance to try. Ended up buying Taetea " Gong Ting Shu Pin and Gao Zhen Wu You Hou Zhuan". This post has been edited by edksdan: Jun 28 2011, 10:29 AM |
