| | Guest | What's good at TenRen? In the past I've had hit and miss experiences with TenRen, one white
tea in a clear bag was average, another tea I don't remember also
wasn't too exciting, but recently I got their dark oolong 2nd grade
and ti kuan yin 3rd grade and for the price they're excellent in my
estimation. Which other teas are good there, and which ones are not so
good? How much could I save by ordering the same tea from stores like
teaspring and hao de which are in China? thx! -ak | |

HouDe is not in China; he's in Texas.
Both HouDe and Teapsring, as well as Jing's Tea Shop are worth every
penny.
HouDe, especially, is extremely honest and reliable and stives for top
quality.
Actually, when I saw the header on your post, most initial response
was "nothing".

PS- You probably won't save any money; but, you'll no longer be
wasting it at TenRen.
The bit more you'll pay at HouDe or Teaspring or even, Imperial Tea
Court is worth it when you consider the top notch teas you'll be
drinking.
BTW, shipping from TeaSpring is $3.95 and from HouDe $5.00. Jing's is
especially fine tea, as well, and Sebastien and Jing offer samples
that are worth a try.
