Default Whats in a name

I arrived at the PPP early so I could check out some teas. I couldnt
see any Rooster Crest or Cocks Comb in the ridiculously expensive
$40/25g BaiJiGuan. Thatll remain a hole in my rock tea collection. I
was very pleased with the rocky TieLuoHan Iron Arhat which was a
little better at $20/50g before the 25% discount because it was a
2007. The leaves were big and thick. If I was an elightened monk
this would be right up there. I did spot a 100g/$12 bag of SowMee
(you cant miss it) Ill get next time. The leaves were greener than
the commercial stuff I buy in Chinatown which looks like dried brown
Autumn leaves. For the first time I could make out the eyebrows.
SowMee is still the only tea I would drink if I had to make a choice.
