I prefer loose japanese green tea without macha powder, Lot 10 Isetan got quite a few choice.

why settle for just japanese green tea when there are lots more than that?

Green tea alone i drink Long Jin, Bi Luo Chun, Jasmine Tea, Rose Green tea, Sen Cha, Kuki Cha, Genmaicha, Macha.

May i know which other places does sell blooming tea besides Hojo and Purple Cane?

Many shops in Petaling Street got sell. Nice to drink meh? It just looks nice la.

thanks bro. i'm trying Hojo tea first. Love to see its bloom.

i have shifted from drinking coffee to tea these days and i immediately find the health changes (positive changes). I am not so "heaty" anymore. skin getting better, less big pimples on the face, can start eating more fried/spicy food now, previously, it will cause a lot of pimples on myjawline. Tea also helped me in the morning, helped on my bowel movements.

I drink the following tea regularly (2-3 packets a day)
- English Breakfast
- Chamomile
- Lady Earl Grey

please recommend me other good tea in packet form! would like to try some chinese tea that brings good health benefits too and where can i buy them

and something about TWG, its SOOOO nice but SOOOOO expensive! RM 60 for 1 box compare to twinning RM 15 ....

If you can feel the difference from drinking such normal tea, imagine the difference when you start on raw green Ti Kun Yam or Taiwan Oo Loong. I don't think it comes in a bag and if it does its not the good stuff. Remember RAW tea is the best.

what are the "equipments" required to make such teas? can provide more information on what are the tea types with their benefits? and also where can i get them and the prices too.

I know some chinese teas range from 10k - 20k

Oh those I recommended won't cost you that much. Top range about 1-2k. You need a pot and any cup. I drink from a mug but pour from a proper pot. Just learn from the shop the proper way to brew and you are good to go.

You can get from hojo in mid valley or china town.

there is a tea sxpo coming up. you can check it out. http://www.mmr.my/

Hye guys, just want to ask, is purplecane tea house a trustable place to buy yixing teapot ? I have seen one for the price of RM117 and range Rm200 and was wondering if it's purple clay. Here's the photo. Not sure if the photo can help identify it but thought i would give it a try and maybe some of you can know or spot it.

hello! i think u bought during the 20-40% sale?

PC generally trustable IMHO. They will quite honestly tell u that it's 1/2 manual when that is the case.

if the pot you bought looks generally like the pics, then i'm sure it's not a chemical pot at least.

Best to clean properly before using. I do it by boiling after scrubbing for half a day at least with old tea leaves. I have a few pots in that price range and they all perform well.

normally i simmer it 1hrs minimum with tea i think i will use it with. after that just leave it for 24 hrs.

scrubbing is only when the put is smelling funny or when you want to "reset" and old pot.

these are just "my" methods. many people could "believe" and do other things. there is no right or wrong until u break a new pot

Thank you everyone for all the reply and guidance. Yes i bought this particular teapot from Purple cane. It's the Purple Clay Flat Lid Teapot.

Thank you my friend. i shall give it a try

I love pu erh and oolong tea. Actually i do have about 3 pots in my house that i bought about 6 years ago. But i bought quite cheap that time and till today i never knew if it's the genuine clay or vice versa but I used to submerge and boil the entire teapot in a huge metal pot that i filled with water and plenty of tea leaves. I read it somewhere and so i did it that way. For this new teapot, i shall try your method and see how it goes. I will share some photos of my pu erh tea collection as well. Once again, thank you so much for replying. I am from Ipoh by the way.

This is my favorite raw pu erh tea from Awazon. Thought I would share some of these tea cakes.







These ones are bought from Yunnan.







This was bought from Purple Cane about 4 years back
