Tea lover reporting in

I can't sleep if I drink too much of tea during dinner time...Especially with those "thick- thick"

my favorite young" tiet kuan ying" & green tea..

ohh i see, my first impression is that chinese black tea will disturb our sleep seldom drink chinese tea

ya lol, so i try to avoid drinking tea at evening

djcarmen-sorry what is black tea?

akira-yeap me too, I try to drink lesser u know most of when we makan at chinese restaurant they serve with chinese tea...

Those Chinese tea are crap and they're getting more and more expensive for a glass.

Which shop do you buy from?
You can consider 1 grade lower ...

the other way around. green tea affects ur sleep. if u have insomia or u're stressed up, try chamomile tea. apparently the essence helps to calm people down and gives u good sleep. been taking it for a week, skin's getting a lil smoother and most of all, i can sleep the whole nite without waking up.

black tea are known as fermented tea. compared to green tea, i dont really enjoy the taste. its a lil darker n different taste compared to the chinese green tea.

hahaha.. the longer u keep it the higher the price is. my dad's friend house have at least half a million dollars cost of tea alone (not including this teapots).

djcarmen sounds very experience in tea...
Should seek for more advice from you*if you dont mind*
So is "O-long" consider as black tea? Where is the best place to buy tea?

Agree! I still prefer Green tea taste. Been trying to look for an equivalent..any recommendations?

I heard green tea will cause dehydration.. True?

u want to learn bout tea.. come to my place when my dad n his friend's around. they teach u from top to bottom on tea. i still can't figure the names of the tea.. only know black tea n green tea. LOL~ diff flavours n which is the ones i like most. =P

black tea = cheng cha. green tea = sok cha. (if i'm not mistaken. )

chinese green tea or japanese green tea? its erm diff... but is there a outcome u're finding for in drinking tea? e.g.: detox, hormone control, doesn't get u hungry or sleepy when u drink at nite.. etc...

to a certain extend, yes. it detoxes ur body.. remember to also drink water though. its the most healthy drink u can ever find anyways. =)

Oolong is semi fermented tea. Tie Kuan Yin, Shui Xian etc belongs to this category.

Black Tea is fully fermented. Puerh (ripe version)

White tea is steamed. White Peony, Shoumei

Yellow tea is stacked. Mengding Yellow bud

Tea house will allow you to test the tea for FREE. No obligation. If you like the taste, then buy. You can find Chinese tea shop in Jln Petaling else in shopping centre, you can look for Purple Cane or Hojo at Gardens Mid Valley.

Hi all,

I love tea, and recently tasted one of the best green tea I have purchased, from Taiwan. Pretty expensive about RM 30 for 35 tea bags, but worth the money.

Unfortunately I only purchased few, guess I have hunt whether it is eing sold in Malaysia.

Puerh can be cheap or can be very expensive. I like non-fermented puerh.

Japanese green tea. No specific outcome..purely for taste since I enjoy drinking tea. But if I have to choose outcomes, I will go for detox.

I drink lipton tea plus milk in the morning

In the office, I will have hot japanese green tea love tea, but also love coffee

Nope nope... very paisey my knowledge is only 1% or might be 0.1% very paisey to join your uncles
Can tell your knowledge is even better than me...
Since when you started to pick up? I believe your dad must have setup a nice and cozy place for his "lim teh" session with your uncles..

I like Tie Kuan Yin ,puuer, and green tea as well... Hahaha sorry limited knowledge
I heard of there are good greats of "cha wang" king tea *correct me if I'm wrong*
I usually do my shopping at Purple cane, besides I will have my meal as well...

currently drinking NH detoxlim....trying to lose weight...kinda effective

Where do you guys buy your Tea?

Any good / friendly shops in PJ/KL who are willing to teach newbies on which tea is good? ie tea testing, etc?

I usually grab mine from purple cane Mid Valley/Pudu..
I like the food there as well...

if its english tea, my recommendation would be dandelion roots.

chinese tea... would be the chinese green tea. d ones i like would have this 'kam' taste where there's a tingling taste in the bud after u swallow. helps to cleanse the throat from oil n etc. but i donno whats the name of that exact tea.. not that cheap too. kinda pricy.. got it from the tea shop in Summit USJ, but we took the last set. LOL~


lol. i only started learning somewhere end of last year when i was out of job. was joining my dad n his friends in tea shop n tasting diff types of tea. i'll state my thoughts in each after that n they'll explain things here n there. they even talk to my friends bout tea n etc...

yea, have a tea place in the house. but its kinda messy, since its the tv room n the office too. we usually end up elsewhere for tea instead of the house though.

i know one. SS14, Subang Jaya. the guy that owns the place is called Uncle Lee. Next to a chicken rice shop called Kar Heong (forgot the name of the tea shop.. Zheng something i think). my parents are there most of the weekday afternoon with their friends. the owner's very nice n helpful... funny too!
