I've ordered expensive tea direct from China. It was definitely the highest quality I've seen. Where do you go for the non-expensive stuff?
TenRen Tea for the good shit, Adagio Teas for mid-to-high quality with a lot of flavor options.
Apparently TenRen also has a retail location in my city, I'll have to check that out.
Adagio is phenomenal. I spend way too much money there.
I have bought from Yunnan Sourcing in the past and recommend em. There is some expensive tea for sure but tons of affordable ones.
If you don't mind venturing to r*eddit, r/tea has a vendor list that is very helpful
Heheh, Yunnan Sourcing is what I had in mind with "expensive tea from China". It's true though, some really aren't bad, converting from USD just makes it feel more expensive.
Ah, maybe we're looking at different teas though. Bear in mind you can/should steep a lot of them several times.
That's a good point, accounting for multiple steeps, some of the lower priced options work out to a pretty sweet deal. I might have to place another YS order now that I'm thinking about it... ๐
