I have already checked Amazon and found The Execution of Mayor Yin by Chen. I am looking forward to reading it. Thank you for the sharing. What happened back then must have caused a lot of people much sufferings and bad influences of the current culture.
In the late 60’s when I first heard about Cultural Revolution, I thought it was a good thing. It turned out to be a catastrophe for China and it was only a weapon for Mao for absolute control of the country. From my other reading, I know that much of good traditional values have been destroyed. How true is that in your own experience?
Imperial Golden Tip is the first puer tea that I can really like drinking. It changed my impression of what puer is. I think it is the quality that makes the difference. And I am discovering things everytime that parcel from Hong Kong arrives!
I make the tea with much longer time! Same about 250 ml water and 5 g tealeaves, but for 5 minutes. I like what I get from there — slightly sweet and full of wonderful tastes — in a simple old mug with an oversize infuser.
This will be very useful. It seems like one of your Christmas recipes without the tea and a lot more ginger. I have a question: do you peel the ginger? If you do, do you weigh it before peeling or after?
So many things seem to have happened since I last visited! Don’t you guys find the gaiwans amazing too? Does anyone know if the bell shape utility going be restocked? It has been sold out for a long time.
Does it mean pots that are thicker and squarish are more likely to be genuinely Yixing? So many round ones on the internet!
