According to your plans to store more oolong you probably have some "theses" how to pick out good tea for aging...maybe next post about aged oolongs? I have very pleasant HungShui GaoShan from Stephane where my first idea was “hm, this roasting and aroma, it could be interesting in twenty years…” <br Petr Novákhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11517473309667122386noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4967775190974226615.post-6044463692876470362011-02-23T11:46:31.148-08:002011-02-23T11:46:31.148-08:00Thanks Gingko!

With regards to your post here, I think one of the reasons that home oolong aging isn't more popular is because there's a lot less information available about what kind of storage conditions produce good aged oolong--especially since a lot of the good aged oolong we're trying now wasn't even purposely aged in the Elliot Knapphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12558753615945429022noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4967775190974226615.post-61934835558421652402011-02-19T00:48:19.826-08:002011-02-19T00:48:19.826-08:00The tea is one of the gold-medal winners of the 20...The tea is one of the gold-medal winners of the 2007 Lugu aged tea competition. Considering the quality, age (1986) the competition-winner award mark-up and the US retailer's mark-up it isn't a high price.<br /><br />Perhaps it could be considered "high" if one were to buy it for that price in Taiwan, but not in the US.

Maybe we can share a pot of oolong there sometime? <br /><br />Yes, Petr and I have communicated about the EoT aged DD (great price for the experience, I wouldn't be surprised if they're close to selling out) as well as different storage methods.

Would you mind if I added you to the "Northwest tea links" on my blog? Hopefully someday we'll cross paths and share a cup :) I'll be interested to hear about your oolong tea storage progress. I see Petr Novak is doing the same with some EoT Dong Ding, stored in one of his pots and sealed with wax.LTPRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10754182842876404262noreply@blogger.com
