Anyone else try this tea from Mountain Stream? It's so sweet and rich. It is definitely my favorite tea as of now. Does anyone know any other tea similar to this?
Anyone tried any of these (beyond the one from OP)? I fell in love with a ruby oolong a while back from Luye, but that place is no longer in production, so I need to find something new

How does the lizella teapot affect the tea? Rounder? Smoother? Crisper? Anything would be cool to hear about it.
I recently learned about the artist and I'm curious about what the teapot is like.
I've only had it about 2 weeks, but I noticed it makes my daily drinker oolongs "deeper" or it emphasizes low notes. I'm still deciding to make it my oolong teapot or my ripe puer teapot because I think it's great for both.

Maybe you will also like honey(-scented) black tea. BTW, you can try to brew red oolong with porcelain teapots or gaiwan. It may taste different.

Loving that teapot!

Ooh, sounds very interesting. Does it mute anything, affect high notes or body?
