A sea of white snow with a small black cup filled with red-tinted tea liquor...brilliant. :D<br /><br />Yes, shupu are always good to have around. Sir William otL said that shu pu'erhs are 'lovely, like comfort food'. I heartily agree.

I finally got to see (and hold) my new nephew, Samuel Alexander Beaudet. Such a WASPish name for a child of French extraction being raised Jewish. New babies are unbelievably soft; everyone knows this, but somehow one forgets and it comes as a surprise. <br /><br />I think tomorrow's tea will be a shu.speakfreelyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13757071341180546490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-753589427119541238.post-38780877109120834742010-12-24T00:17:53.337+00:002010-12-24T00:17:53.337+00:00I usually dont take time to ever make comments on ...I usually dont take time to ever make comments on a web site but I have to say I would truly be doing you a grave disservice if I didnt write something.

Maybe... if from Fuhai, then its production year (1990) would be one year after their founding. There wasn't much around back then. As you say, though, it's almost irrelevant when you're composting your leaves to make shupu!Hobbeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10719619695211038389noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-753589427119541238.post-45160932930683009802010-12-21T14:44:16.071+00:002010-12-21T14:44:16.071+00:00It's interesting this tea would lure drinkers ...It's interesting this tea would lure drinkers in Oxford and Warsaw in very similar <a href="http://blog.polishwineguide.com/2009/03/1990-fuhai-wild-tuo.html" rel="nofollow">weather</a>...<br /><br />Agree with you - it's very good shu.
