Chiew... All tipu me one, iTea

Yeah, some Singaporeans have gooding vintage tea and teaware collection

Not too sure about tea, but for teaware they are one of early birds to sapu from places i.e. Malacca, etc. I bet the prices are damn rite during those times too

I have some but need awhile before share them here yar

Mmm... Must try. Tough to find genuine ginger tea nowadays

Added on March 20, 2012, 11:46 pmHOLY SMOKE!!! Mini heart attack

Cleaning my 60's Zhuni Ge Zhui pot after use and lid slipped off. Fortunately sitting on floor, bounced few times before managed to catch it. Surface wise looks fine, i hope no micro level crack

Still damn scary thinking about it now, hope something like this wont happen again. Btw, Zhuni can really bounce... And the sound of it, pure music

But if lucky, you may experience it minus the heartache. The sound is lik ... divine

Very dreamy lately, must be thinking too much of some Leica Mmmm's

I tried once during those days and i was like ...The hell??? How do i use it??? But now i am like ...WOW!!! This is what i call a camera, those SLR's and EVL's can save for the trash can

But sigh... M8 is not suitable for my use, M9 is way above my league (for now ) Have yet to consider any glasses for it somemore, An Jua???

Yeah, but those Mmm's are just too addictive

Too bad i have been buying pots recently, budget too quickly depleted. Eyeing on some nice cooked PuErh as well but they cost a bomb, sigh...

Hahaha... Yes a good pot can significantly bring out the best from a tea, but the tea quality plays an important role as well. Remember the teapot can only "help", flavor, character, etc is all up to the tea. Btw, pot are prone to breakage, thus a risky investment IMHO

Me and tea art? Always no affinity, always at the wrong price and most of the times good ones being sold off. But i am happy with what i manage to yield so far, taking things slow but slowly shifting up the gears now (the headache part cuz spend too much)

These are "shao hsing" (sorry if i did not get the term correct, i cant do chinese) kettles, more often treated as utilitarian ware. Rarer matching and good condition ones dates early ROC period while common are recently made one

Add on > Seijyuro, not able to get green tea from Hojo with RM3-400???

Soon Dennos, very soon...

I already overdrafted myself Cuebiz

But i doubt much gooding stuffs, given nowadays situation. Also price will sure up for lots stuff i.e. Liu Bao

Thats great

First grade ones??? Or big leaf??? Branded??? So you sapu one or few basket(s)???

We also crave for it, hahaha...

Those are not little man. I bet you can supply for few generations with those and lots more in your storeroom

I belief for now that is, Bladech

when collection expands rapidly and price is rite...

Doesnt hurt to be able to trade some similar ones that you have in large quantity to get hold and try new ones. Thats part of sharing anyway

Hey Seijyuro, just found out Legend of Tea does offer some matcha, approx rm68 or something like that

Despite raw material not originated from Japan, it still taste similar and good, maybe can try out

No problem. I find matcha quite special when sampled it, wonder how does more costly Japanese ones taste
