Greetings,
My brother has received some exclusively looking Da Hong Pao as a gift from
a business connecition in China. He - and I - would like to know a bit more
about this particular DHP - which grade it is, which bushes (I know,
probably it is not from the original ones :-)), which tea maker and which
locality it comes from. I have uploaded some not very high resolution
pictures which I received from my brother. If it would help, I would ask him
to send some more close up and high resolution pictures if that could help
identifying this tea. Just let me know.
I agree 100 percent with niisonage on this one. I would like to also
add that packaging often becomes
more important than the actual tea itself when it's given as a gift.
The more ornate the packaging, the
more expensive the "tea". I have some absolutely beautiful boxes that
were consequently filled with
stuff that brewed out flavors that reminded me of the smell of a
landfill.
