“…people with glass tea flasks half full of green tea leaves, leaving the actual tea liquor a cloudy dull shade of greenish brown. I can’t imagine exactly what they think this accomplishes, unless they are treating tea as a bitterly punishing form of traditional Chinese medicine.”
LOL so well described
I agree with you that most people in Mainland teashops use excessive amount of tea leaves. I also share your feeling about that old pu’er cake. Those tuhao do things that are really disgusting.
However, I think sometimes tea has to be at the right strength, especially when making it the gongfu way. A small cup of good strength of a good tea is great enjoyment. Of course this has to be properly prepared.
