Went to a Qiu Xiang Tea - Kepong. They have been around since 1993. Currently 3 branches. 4th branch to be ready soon.

They sell quite a range of tea. Their famous in house tea is the Tie Guan Yin cause they have their own plantation. They have quite a number of grades for it. I tried 4 of the middle grade. Then I tried a Wuyi Tea (cannot remember the exact name). Followed by 2 raw puerh (2003, 2004 own brand) and 1 ripe puer (2009 own brand).

Conclusion, I still prefer puerh more than oolong and therefore bought this raw. Own brand Raw Puerh 2003 (500g) - first own brand raw. It's taste is unique and is quite smooth.

Yes. That pot is from Tacha

Some people likes the smokiness. Xiaguan is also famous for its smokiness.

Some puerh when it is young it has strong smokiness but after aging, the smokiness will become less and it give a nice touch of smokiness. It is like light roasted oolong, some ppl like it roasted some ppl like it without roasted.

Non Roasted... Autumn harvest

Tie Guan Yin - 100g


The tea leaves is actually from a big bag pack which the seller puts it into this smaller pack and tin box

wow, the green color of the leave look very nice i wonder how is the taste.

I think it tastes quite well for its price.

Few days ago I tried the same category non roasted autumn from another tea shop that cost RM90:100G. The one I just bought is RM33:100G. Tak kalah to the more expensive one. Therefore I bought it for casual drink in office

colour like vegetables...so fresh green

The wet leaves. Kembang a lot...

how many times can it be bancuh?

I am guessing 12 to 15 times for 100g...

Tonight's menu... Taiping HouKui... Chinese Green tea... Trying it for the first time. Will snap snap.. brb with it.

After having this unopened in my fridge for 3 months... finally had the chance to open it today..

Taiping Houkui Spring 2010 - Hojo
http://hojotea.com/item_e/g07e.htm

5g:200ml
90c, Quick Rinse, 1st 15s, 2nd 30s, 3rd 30s, 4th 45s, 5th 1m











This taste a bit like Longjing or the typical Chinese Green tea taste. Has good sweet aftertaste. Very refreshing. Yum yum...
