Nilmandra,

Thanks so much for visiting and for your comment. Also, your blog is incredible!

Yes, I think the freshness of tea does make a difference, and I can imagine that the tea you had was simply incredible. Perhaps one day I shall be fortunate enough to visit China and taste the tea there!

Sounds absolutely lovely. The best tea I've ever tasted was bought in Shanghai, a fresh longjing (dragon well) that was harvested just a couple of months ago from a neighbouring province. I so need to get some fresh tea leaves again. You're right, the better quality the tea leaves, the more they are able to stand up to rebrewing.

Joie,

A bit smaller, but as you note, very tightly rolled. It is so much fun watching those leaves unfurl!

This sounds absolutely amazing. It almost looks like Jasmine Pearls. Joie de vivre’s last blog post..Rum Raisin Biscotti
