New Teapot and Other News


 The new Yixing Clay teapot from China Cha-Dao (link: http://china-cha-dao.com/) arrived the other day, and I love it. From what I can gather, it's semi-handmade, which seems to be the main way that most of the mid-priced yixing pots are made these days. However, I'm still waiting on the pu-erh from China Cha-Dao (china post seems to be a lot slower than hong-kong post, or customs got it), so the full website review will have to wait.


As for Golden Teahouse...... let's just say that things are 'ongoing'. Once everything is sorted there, I'll start posting the website and tea reviews. Until then, I *suggest* that you look at other, already reviewed or well known suppliers. *cough cough cough quality issues cough cough cough*

In other news, I've placed an order with Phoenix Tea (link: http://www.phoenix-teashop.com/store/en/) for a variety of teas, including a few oolongs, some hunan hei-cha (read: chinese black tea), sheng pu-erh, and a green tea. I've also contacted one of the owners, and she seems very nice! The thing I love about almost all of the internet tea companies that I've dealt with is the passion for good tea, plus the good customer service/communication.
