good combo. The best oolong tea i ever had was a bit pricey and from taiwan. It tasted like i added honey and just had so many harmonious nuances

Aged oolong tea is very expensive. But, it really worth the price!
I remember one time my grandmother made me some of her aged oolong tea. I drank it while smoking escudo tobacco. The taste was wonderful!

it's certainly something special. Not only do you have to start with tea leafs that are already really good, but it just does more for the tea then most other aging does. It's the kind of thing where you're surprised that tea can taste that way, that it can have those flavors. Basically it's something very magical.

Ahoy and welcome aboard from central North Carolina. I made port long ago in Kaohsiung and enjoyed walking around the city a little and visiting a temple. I've been interested in Chinese history and culture since high school. My ship also made port in Hong Kong when it was a British Crown Colony. I was in the Navy at the time.

Welcome from the New Jersey Shore!

I have friends from Taiwan. If I ever visit I’ll street food myself to death. Stinky Tofu and all. My friends are all vegetarian, Taoist.

Welcome to the forum. - I’m willing to bet I’d enjoy the smell of your pipe over the burning joss.
