recently tested a tea from 永恒香,custom by them, not bad, is been approximately 06~07, assume the leaf is 2~3 years old, so now is about 10yrs old raw tea.
Smooth to drink now, light brown, no more fragrance, left tea flavor, with the price i paid.. considered worth it.

I went to Purple Cane, Queenbay Mall. It seems like this store is slightly better than Lao Ba Cha in term of sales tactic and strategy.
Saw some white tea. Any good ideas about this tea?

Regards  White tea is a lightly oxidized tea grown and harvested primarily in China, mostly in the Fujian province.[1] More recently it is grown in Taiwan, India, Northern Thailand and Eastern Nepal. White tea comes from the buds and leaves of the Chinese Camellia sinensis plant. The leaves and buds are allowed to wither in natural sunlight before they are lightly processed to prevent oxidation or further tea processing. The name "white tea" derives from the fine silvery-white hairs on the unopened buds of the tea plant, which gives the plant a whitish appearance.[2] The beverage itself is not white or colourless but pale yellow.

i love white teas. has more anti oxidant than green tea and has fewer caffeine compared to green tea. if you guys can get, buy silver tip white tea but so far i can only find the 2nd best white tea, which is peony.

I want to drink in office everyday. even if you buy the dry flower from chinese herbs shop, steep it with boiling water is good enough  other than that, i think supermarket, under tea section should have it. or you may just get it purple crane or something? forgot the name of the shop... but there is one tea shop just next to isetan's supermarket (if you are in KL area).

I want to drink in office everyday. kuk pou = kuk fa (chrysanthemum) + bou lei (puer) the bou lei used is normally those ripe (aka cooked) ones. hope it helps.
