    Sorry to hear about the catastrophe in Sichuan. I would like to buy some tea to help. Please can you recommend which of your scented teas has the strongest jasmine flavour?

  2. Thank you for your concern.

    Without question the best jasmine tea that we carry is...http://sevencups.com/tea_shop/product.php?productid=16471&cat=272&page=2

    This is a Sichuan tea from Ya'an county, deeply affected by the earthquake in the tea producing areas.

    Thanks for the quick answer! I purchased some jasmine tea by mail and hope to purchase more in the future.

    And just a suggestion for your webshop: many European buyers are probably not very familiar with ounces and Fahrenheit degrees, therefore providing instructions both in ounces/grams and Fahrenheit/Centigrade degrees would be most helpful (and maybe attract more European buyers).

    It is not so difficult to recalculate and I have done it myself but if many people do it many times, doing it just once for everybody would take less time overall :)

  4. Sorry, Andres
    We will audit our information and find the places where have only used ounces and Fahrenheit. I don't know why the US still hangs on to these measurements.

    I am proud to say that I have visited Estonia and liked it very much. It seems like it has become an epicenter for global communications.
    Thanks for your support.
    Best wishes

    Austin,
    Absolutely no reason to be sorry. You have the best (and most educative) tea site I have seen on the web. I particularly like that you have specific precise preparation instructions for each tea -- and of course that you sell teas that you have checked out on the spot.

    I am glad that you liked my country. You are always welcome back.

  6. Hi Andres
    Thanks for your kind words, and also for your concern for the people affected by the terrible earthquake. I am in China now and the outpouring of care is really remarkable. Here hundreds of thousand of people have volunteered, images of the area is on every tv channel, all of the time. China has declared three days of morning. All entertainment has been suspended. Every business that I talk too has donated money. 153 rescuers were killed today by a landslide. It terrible, still it's humanity at is best coming from the people helping. I was here last year when there was a quake in Yunnan, and the place was rebuild at breakneck speed. It is always to see the miracle of service and hope in the middle of such heart breaking tragedy.

    Thanks! The Meng Ding 2006 is exquisite! I have usually preferred stronger and more robust jasmine flavour but I changed my mind on this one. Although you recommend 1 minute of brewing for the 1st infusion, I found out that 1.5-2 min of brewing produces absolutely the best flavour to my taste.
