100 pounds of Oolong
Another random story from my increasingly bizarre life: a buddy of mine ended up with an enormous bag of tea as part of an auction lot - he didn't know what to do with it so he gave to me. Apparently, I have developed a reputation as the tea guy and so now it gravitates to me. . . .


It is, so far as I can tell, a medium grade Ti Kwan Yin (Iron Goddess of Mercy) Oolong. Not my favorite stuff, but drinkable. If you can read Chinese and are able to tell me more about the tea please do -- I'm quite curious.

I took out as much as I'll ever need (a couple canisters worth) and I'm look to share out the rest of it, or failing that donate the whole bag to a social service agency. Post a comment here or send me an email and (assuming I know you or you are very nice) you can come by the gallery and take some.

If were local I would take you up on that offer. My partner and I are camellia sinensis devotees. :)
