Hello!
Well... I am just about to make an order at Upton Teas (well, last
topic
* made me realize that I have run out of Darjeeling ) and I decided
to ask you quite a strange question - Can you recommend me some tea?

Best regards and... Happy New Year!,

ZH52, Ancient Pu-Erh Mini Tuo Cha, is something that I order every month
or two (used to take the 1kg sacks when that size was still around). *I
certainly come back to that one; it's become my basic bolay.
ZH80, Ancient Organic Green Pu-Erh Tuo Cha, though it is by far the most
expensive tea on the Pu-erh page, is very good indeed. *Shame they don't
sell a sample of four mini-tuochas for say, $8 or so.
And speaking of Darjeeling from them, TD39 -- Makaibari Estate FTGFOP1
Second Flush -- is the one of the best for my taste that I've had in a
long time. *I'm not alone in my appreciation:
*"Replace the common corporate coffee with this tea, finish a full
* day'swork by mid-morning, dance & sing with friends until mid-
* afternoon & by evening write a book entitled, Ain't Gonna Rush No
* More. By night the wars end & birds speak. It's good tea."

Happy Europe, Milo (years change with depressing predictability, but
continents?)

That review deserves to be seen by all. T^oci
