Hey guys, do you guys aware of this complimentary tea tasting event from Thaitee? It stated that they won gold and silver medals for their Fo Shou and Shui Xian teas in their Facebook page. I wondered if anyone of you guys are attending?

Have not been to their shop for ages but I guess you could go there for free sampling all year round.

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

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

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.

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.

Can't remember the name of the tea shop but there is 1 shop opposite OCBC bank near Kastam. Price not cheap and selection not wide compared to KL.

normally tea producers don't use coloring. there are however a lot of tea with artificial flavoring or planted with lots of chemical. for purportedly-organic tea, try Hojo in Mid Valley. However, prices not cheap and his selection normally doesn't taste "deep" in flavors. see signature if you want to try some puerh.

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

Come to the dark side. Once you start drinking raw puerh, you'll have no cravings for genmaicha anymore.
