Take it from an ex addict. Theres a few $k you see there, and there are more.  
Not worth the price of admission.  
Spend the money on the leaf.

I need more! Today’s ceremony was my second to last little brick.

Is there any sheng on that site I linked that you would recommend? They’re local to me so I can just go grab some if there’s anything worthwhile.

Awesome to hear! I didn’t realize they had a reputation outside of Tucson but that is noteworthy. May have to make my father’s day a tea date.

This thread inspired me to make a Fathers Day reservation for “afternoon tea” at a local tea cafe. My daughters are very excited.

We try to do one on special occasions in the morning just me, my wife, and our son (6 currently). I’m in charge of tea (usually something herbal, this kid is manic enough without caffeine :joy:), and my wife will make scones.

Last one was Easter. Hibiscus tea (hot Jamaica to me, weird) and lemon raspberry scones!

Resurrecting this if some of the tea peeps are still around! Im currently drinking some longjing grandpa style. Ive got a small collection, a few shengs and cheap shous, although I prefer liubao to shou for my dark earthy teas. Also sitting on some random samples of all sorts of teas. What are you guys drinking these days?

I dont think Ive ever ordered from Adagio, but I do love a green oolong. I usually get a few high mountain oolongs from Floating Leaves every year. Love the bright floral flavor

I drink pretty much every tea (and coffee), but I seem to keep floating back to Rooibos blends. I also was luckily able to jump on the Qi Aerista brewer back in the day when it was a Kickstarter and absolutely love it. Still going strong -knock on wood-
