Yes, I'm also looking into collecting semi-aged tea. I think I come to the conclusion that drink brand new sheng is not really my thing!<br /><br /><br /><br />Hi Nada,<br /><brAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-753589427119541238.post-32856784992384398312010-09-07T23:49:43.431+01:002010-09-07T23:49:43.431+01:00a tea gathering sounds like a great plan... might ...a tea gathering sounds like a great plan... might I tempt you gentlemen with an invitation to the seaside? ;)nadahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14966294853851019976noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-753589427119541238.post-4423210663242843482010-09-07T22:18:56.694+01:002010-09-07T22:18:56.694+01:00Apache: why not buy something slightly older?
