Jing Mai 2010 Raw - Single Estate harvest. This gives a very good aroma and light soothing flavor. Though it is 2010, it is very easy to drink now. Not bitter and not astrigency. This falls nicely under 'buy 2 drink now' category.

Long Pin Hao 2010 Raw - Single estate. It is quite smoky. Kind of reminds me of tobacco smell. Drinkable now if you like the smoke.

do ppl swap tea beng here ?

Why swap? Too much of the same? Or you don't like it after tasting?

sometimes some member manage to find gem and can share

for me just for fun

i have seen tea groups, where if they find good gems.. they will tell each other to buy as a group so that they get cheaper discount when bulk.

i would share/exchange my tea when time comes... now what i have can be found in market also

cool

Women fav raw puerh. Nowdays hardcore drinker are looking for Bing Dao. Soon to be as pricey as Lao Ban Zhang.

How come no one drinks Taiwan tea here? Only po-lei only?

I do drink taiwan tea occasionally but rarely buy them. You can share your cup of tea stories too

Don't know about that, only realised on the first day. So just try my luck on the last day-loh. But NO LUCK.

Will drop by JDX if happen to be at that area. Won't purposely drive all the way from PJ to Kepong to get tea. Got amoi maybe-lah

Qing Dynasty Tea pots 150 to 250 years old

A private collector was showing his collection of these oldies. Price tag each is about RM11,000 (USD3548) to Rm17,000 (USD5483)

1960s Poh Lan 229 Liu Bao - Price tag Rm3500 (USD1129) per KG. Aroma and Taste like medicine herb. Sweet. Smooth. So goood...

Initially we brew it with a 250 years old Mid Qing Dynasty teapot, but the teapot cut the aroma. So we changed it to normal gaiwan and the aroma came back.

I didn't realised it fetch such high price now. There are better Poh Lan series than this.

well actually I'm new to tea drinking too that is why I have been going around testing and drinking. The type of tea that captured my taste buds are Taiwanese tea. So I've been hoping to learn from you seniors about good shops with good selections with good pricing etc. Hope you guys can share

There is one shop in Amcorp Mall specialising in Taiwan High mountain tea. You should go there and give it a try

Cheap teapots - Check out the price tag. MYR 18 (USD 6), MYR 25 (USD 8.3)

If only I have space...
