puerh is either raw or ripe. ripe puerh is fermented artificially (water + heat + natural microbes) in very controlled environment. raw is all the processing steps except this artificial fermentation.

twigs are sometimes allowed to give puerh an added dimension. it is however a sign of cheaper puerh.

roasted tea is actually in another category altogether. oolong or yancha (rock tea) are examples of roasted tea. roasted tea is actually the "pinnacle" of tea art. however, the cost is also high and storage is not easy for novice.

perhaps tell us where u live and we can recommend u the nearest tea joint. the tea expo at viva mall will be best chance to try many tea in a single place.

Hi guys,

I drink chinese tea from time to time like puer or oolong.

I wanted to get a proper tea making set. most of the time im based in penang. where can i find decent quality tools and what tools do you guys recommend. im just a newbie in this area.

Thx

Just simple set will do.

Tea tray (Plastic one also Ok)
Tea Pot (Clay one for Puer or Liu Bao) Clay one for Oolong also ok... no need too expensive RM 50-150 enough.
Tea pourer (Cha Hai)
Tea Cups off coz if can get clay cups.
Tea clips
Tea breaker for Puer disc or bricks
Big Cups with cover if you wanna make in small quantity.
Water boiler.

Try use mineral water, tap water or RO water will make tea taste horrible.

What are some chinese tea packages on Tesco/Giant/Aeon shelves that have less artificial colouring in them?

Get from tea shops better, those tea at hypermall mostly low quality.

For me even Hai O one better, if not try Sea Dyke brand.

Hi ya'll!! I'm a newbie tea drinker! I've had a nice little set that I drink my tea. I normally drink green tea, but I was hoping to ask maybe some of the tea sifus know better. I'm not sure if this was asked before in this thread but here goes...

How on earth do I drink the brown rice with my green tea to get the nice roasted / malty smell into my tea? I drink Green Tea (Can't remember the brand) but I was told to couple it with a bag of brown rice (which came with my purchase). Any advice? Sorry if it seems obvious for some, I'm a noob, not ashamed to admit tongue.gif

Hi guys,

I've been buying my dragonwell teas online. But I'm just wondering, does anybody know if I can get any dragonwell teas from any shops around here? Particularly kl or Selangor area.
