I am concerned but have found no way to get accurate information about this delectable product and the affect or potential of being contaminated by pickers who may have been affected by the virus. <br />Can you offer some sources of accurate, factual information on this issue?<br />Are you still drinking teas harvested in those areas over the past year? <br />What are your thoughts on this subject? Could you offer a blog piece on this??Marie Jarreauhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01177580864393008390noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4373256628108442713.post-46510324983183344192020-01-22T02:36:44.204-06:002020-01-22T02:36:44.204-06:00I'm more of a Protoss type of buyer anywayI'm more of a Protoss type of buyer anywayTarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14578084556317118509noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4373256628108442713.post-62562447981598383962020-01-19T13:42:12.910-06:002020-01-19T13:42:12.910-06:00Greatest prediction here is shu infiltrating the c...Greatest prediction here is shu infiltrating the coffee barJamiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05012360722523781641noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4373256628108442713.post-58851332599155517222020-01-12T16:06:49.775-06:002020-01-12T16:06:49.775-06:00Hello hster, you always know how to make me smile....Hello hster, you always know how to make me smile. :)Cwynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17990034926886208526noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4373256628108442713.post-17827983735553026832020-01-11T15:05:32.864-06:002020-01-11T15:05:32.864-06:00Last month, some on reddit had dissed "boutiq...Last month, some on reddit had dissed "boutique shu" after having tasted a few newish custom pressed cakes by Crimson Lotus and a another new outfit I didn't recognize.

The emphasis on short, sharp, concentrated flavor profiles in cocktails destroys most tea, even strongly flavored ones. <br /><br />Only non-tea infusions can really stand up to booze; hibiscus, mint, etc.erik.ellestadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02845962797641281899noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4373256628108442713.post-25975782405837663132020-01-02T13:32:24.850-06:002020-01-02T13:32:24.850-06:00No, I think you’re the opposite of a Zerg who feel...No, I think you’re the opposite of a Zerg who feels a short term experience is complete and won’t hear otherwise.Cwynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17990034926886208526noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4373256628108442713.post-60086435341614454302020-01-02T13:29:19.937-06:002020-01-02T13:29:19.937-06:00Am I a Zerg?

The idea of springing for a whole tong of something when I'm still figuring out what I like in puerh seems counterintuitive. There were teas I really liked a year ago, which now seem shallow.<br /><br />On the other hand, some teas are sold as a single serving sample or two. I seldom feel I know a tea on first impressions, so this also seems like a poor way to taste tea, especially puerh.erik.ellestadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02845962797641281899noreply@blogger.com
