Yixing teapots!!!! Loving it!



I have been so busy since new year! here are some yixing teapots that I have bought except 3 were given to me as Christmas presents and valentine gifts!

i am so into these teapots! The gaiwan on the right was given by Jose, and the top left teapot was from mom! She bought it from Chinatown, quite pricey! i also bought a tea tray for myself for $110 bucks from a flea market downtown!

the rest of the teapots i bought it when i was out shopping. couldn't remember the price but i remembered i paid quite a lot for them.

most probably i will get them online next time.

i had tasted quite a number of teas lately as well but didnt have the time to blog about it!

gotta run!

Shui Xian chinese oolong tea



Shui Xian Tea, i brewed different shui xian sampler from Teacuppa today. One was very strong with aroma and richer in its flavor, the other one has a milder aroma and lighter in its flavor. Both has different tasting notes. But i prefer the milder one. the lighter liquid is the milder one.

Their teas so far has not dissapointed me. I just orderes 4 oz of the milder Shui Xian and waiting for the delivery. :)

I am planning to get the famous 4 Wuyi Teas from them in future but would wait till i learn to drink and appreciate more teas first.


On other notes, i have been extremely busy with a new projects coming up. I need to sketch out a advert for a billboard for a new club in town! ...

Stressing out! Cioaz!
