Found this treasure of a tea, spring cleaning the drawers in my classroom. A 2018 white tea, Censers, from @white2tea.bsky.social
Smells amazing!

Zhong Kui gaiwan for a much needed big ripe puer session this afternoon. Hope everyone's Monday is going well #teasky ♥️

Holy shi, My black tea is actually good! Very fresh, finished drying yesterday and tasting today. But damn does it smell and taste good. Definitely on the lighter side, thinking maybe more rolling next time ?

Picked two-leaves-and-bud from my tea plants and some wild ones two days ago, wilted for 20 hours or so, rolled by hand for twenty minutes, and have been watching them oxidize for about 16 hours so far. Gonna sun dry these as much as I can today once the smell feels right... How am I doing?

Wild tea (children from seeds of a cultivated camellia sinensis) in South Carolina.

if you’re ok with everything that’s happening right now, but where you draw the line is me sharing my opinion, you can absolutely go fuck yourself. it’s an honor to lose your business. you don’t deserve my tea

There is absolutely no comparable American-grown and -produced substitute for Chinese, Taiwanese, or Japanese tea.

Terroir, climate, cultivar, a millennia of knowledge cannot be replicated a world away.

These tariffs are idiotic.

One of my favorite raw #puerh teas from 2020: Mud by @white2tea.bsky.social

Gorgeous aroma that had a year in white2tea storage and another 4 in mine. Thick, delicious and smooth brew. Yummm

Some new old tea - can't wait to taste the effect of white2storage on this one

pleasant town comics thread because I've just realized I can pin posts now

to all my tea peeps - what's your favourite shou pu'erh?

@white2tea.bsky.social Tried to take a picture of my hot water heater but moved away too quickly, and ended up with a photo that reminds me of Gina. With that as my first thought, I'm realizing how much my life revolves around a tea table. And/or I'm a tea dork. (Gina chabu for reference).

i asked this woman “how much tea have you picked today?” and she said “you’re looking at it.” the buds are still sparse in the tea gardens that we source from in Sichuan and Guizhou, but our spring green teas are just around the corner. our annual green tea presale is live & ends on March 30th

Bellwether has been a delight these past two years. Settled into my drier storage really nicely. Last session today ♥️
