Thanks Zhen, I really appreciate your knowledge and expertise. In a world full of fakes and counterfeits it is so comforting to find a trust-worthy source to help navigate your way through the tea world!🙂
I very much like this approach. It is indeed hard to find genuine products sometimes, especially in the west. I too have found many 'no name' green teas from guangxi, that were absolutely incredible in flavor. Fame (and associated price) don't always say everything. It benefits everyone to share more of these experiences and broaden the tea market.
As Hangzhou was the first Chinese city I visited for pleasure, not work, I imagine that is why I have a nostalgic preference for Long Jing. How does the climate differences impact if at all the two teas. Yes, I know the process is paramount, but climate may have an undertone effect. Great information, as always. 🐷猪八戒
