"Tea masters don't play by the rules." this is gold. Masters work with what they have and are never limited to what they can or can not do, mastering by corresponding to the surrounding environment, and by approaching it in the simplest ways.
Because of remote working now, I am looking to perform my remote meetings as a discussion in front of a table full of teas. Some alliance of work and relax moment to spent. Thanks for your amazing videos !
12:39~ I looked up Liu et al.(2009), and one of the flavan-3-ols found in _Yá Bāo_ (芽苞) definitely was EGCg(Epigallocatechin-3-gallate). The others are: EC(Epicatechin) ECg(Epicatechin-3-gallate) GCdg(Gallocatechin-3,5-digallate) Yeah, full of catechins(anxiolytics) in _Yá Bāo_ .
I assume you already have, but if you haven't yet, be careful; it's a real trip. I was told that I spoke in tongues while I was taking a nap after drinking Pan Long.
Love watching these, just hanging out and drinking tea. Learning so much! Really wish there were some tea houses in South Africa with good teas. Keep up the awesome work!
@@TeaHouseGhost Thank you for the response! Sad to hear but yeahr Kickstarter Expedition for the lost Pan Long tree? (also sounds like a dope book) Mostly joking but if I ever some thing like tha it comes about I'd sure back it!
So-Han, I absolutely love your videos and both the first-hand knowledge that you have, and the experiences you bring to us through years in this career. Could I age normal oolongs and red teas (not rooibos)?
You can age normal oolongs. Jade oolongs don't age very well. The darker ones will age well with periodic re-roasting over the years. I'd have to ask So-Han to see how often to re-roast.
@@TeaHouseGhost Thank you! I have some dan cong and wuyi that im interested in seeing if it will change in character over time. Im new to this and currently trying out the different types of tea outside of oolongs and the normal red lipton tea i get over the counter. I thought id try aging my oolongs, and maybe aged red teas.
Can you make a video or an in-depth series on how to make herbal teas according to gong fu My go to teas are Peppermint Ginger Stinging nettle I also make infusions rather than teas and will be making teas for medical reasons Lavender for sleep Marigold for parasites Sage yea for health benefits etc Remember, taste is a factor for nutritional value is the biggest factor I would highly appreciate it. I usually sleep my stuff for 15 to 20 minutes to make an infusion. And I’m thinking better getting a guy on or whatever you call it that you have to help steep looseleaf tea that long without losing temperature
I just found this video and it resonates with me because the unusual teas that defy categories are my favourites (many teas from Nepal I know are like this, I also have a fave Japanese tea that tastes like nothing else in the world). I had my mind blown when you talked about Ya Bao. I love this tea for years, this year I got the purple variety for the first time and it was even better than the one with white leaves I knew before. I heard the old camelia taliensis trees theory, but what you say is new, including the low caffeine thing. Wow. (Also this made me decide I'll be drinking Ya Bao tomorrow). Pan Long is also wow. I would really love to get such a tea at least once in my life. In summary, this only makes me watch out for unusual teas even more!
I saw you on the whiskey tribe video the other day, and I just wanted to say I would love if you invited them over here, I am so curious how their whiskey tasting goes with tea.
23:26~ I drunk Pan Long a little while ago. I didn't see ghosts after drinking, but it made me "speak in tongues" while taking a nap afterwards, according to my brother.
What is a good tea for someone not big into tea but I want to start, I drink coffee everyday and am looking for a alternative. I like darker flavorful teas.
So I want to try this and get into tea and was wondering how many grams of tea leaves or buds do you put in the pit at a time you have this in a 10g pack on your website would you put it all in the pot or half
Depends on the size of the gaiwan and the type of tea. For most teas, in a standard size gaiwan (120mL or so), 5-7g of tea should do it. Might go for all 10g with a Phoenix Oolong sometimes.
@@SpinalChamp I heard from So-Han that Master Lin Yaobin DID find the Pan Long tree again, and got another batch from the tree; it sold out real quickly, though.

Thanks for your amazing videos !
So educational and relaxing.
Missed your guys' content!! Always a treat to see more gong fu teacha ^_^
Sir you are an absolute legend please continue making these enriching videos!
We certainly will! More coming soon!
I learned a lot from this video. Thanks! 🙏
I absolutely love your channel, thanks for sharing your knowledge with us.
I once had some purple ya bao. It reminded me of some varieties of hops, minus the bitter.

GCdg(Gallocatechin-3,5-digallate)
Yeah, full of catechins(anxiolytics) in _Yá Bāo_ .

Behind the scenes of this episode lol
@@TeaHouseGhost
Yep, tea (in a chemical sense) is all about those catechins. Very _qì_ evoking...
Vocation for the art, amazing video!
Darn, I'd love to try Pan Long, I'll have to keep my eyes out for some.
I assume you already have, but if you haven't yet, be careful; it's a real trip. I was told that I spoke in tongues while I was taking a nap after drinking Pan Long.

Keep up the awesome work!
I think Rui from Grass People Tree is spending time out there actually! Look her up and hit her up on Insta for some good tea hangs!
@@TeaHouseGhost Will do, thanks for the tip!!
I really got some ASMR vibes, when you put the Hong Dao into the pot.
Beautifully done my friend!
Binge watched Season 2 and finally caught up after a couple days.
Cool 😘😘😘😘😘😘
Great episode! Thanks!
26:21 "...it smells like some old school Chinese-ass stuff" lol
Absolutely amazing episode! Any chance a brother can get some of that pan long? I know it's not coming back but I am just super curious about it :D
Sadly we are all out! But maybe one day we can get Lin Yaobin to go find it again!
@@TeaHouseGhost Thank you for the response! Sad to hear but yeahr Kickstarter Expedition for the lost Pan Long tree? (also sounds like a dope book) Mostly joking but if I ever some thing like tha it comes about I'd sure back it!

@@EastCoastOutdoors98 let us know how it goes!!
Can you make a video or an in-depth series on how to make herbal teas according to gong fu
My go to teas are
Peppermint
Ginger
Stinging nettle
I also make infusions rather than teas and will be making teas for medical reasons
Lavender for sleep
Marigold for parasites
Sage yea for health benefits etc
Remember, taste is a factor for nutritional value is the biggest factor
I would highly appreciate it. I usually sleep my stuff for 15 to 20 minutes to make an infusion.

I would love to see how the pan long grows. I’ve been trying to find a pic but I can’t
@@joroh22 maybe we can rustle one up and post on West China Tea’s TikTok or IG. Idk if we even have one… 🤷

That's awesome! What is the japanese tea you speak of that tastes like nothing else in the world?
@@Opennessmakes me think of goishicha… a japanese fermented tea that tastes like dried plums.

I love the Pan

I would try Shu Pu'er! Dark and flavorful for sure!

@@TeaHouseGhost ok thanks and was going to try the ya bao
@@MrDarrickCami1 can def do 4-5g of that in a gaiwan. It'll go and go
@@TeaHouseGhost awesome thanks a lot
No I’m not very creative and I live in New York so I would’ve named the wild tea fall tea Because of the color of the leaves
Then you'd have people making dad jokes about the faulty tea every day.
Who is the dude on the picture in the back?
@@King7Koopa his name is Zhong Kui.
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zhong_Kui
Did he ever find that pan long tree?
Still hasn't. But maybe we can convince him to launch an expedition!
@@TeaHouseGhost I hope he does find it. It was an interesting tea. Only time I tasted peppered turnips in a tea.
@@SpinalChamp
I heard from So-Han that Master Lin Yaobin DID find the Pan Long tree again, and got another batch from the tree; it sold out real quickly, though.
Can I do gongfu with herbal teas I make myself? Example: mint, lemon Ginger, lavender tea.
You must definitely can!
Camellia crassicolumna for how also struggle to understand the name😅
The tea made your friend see ghosts? You cant move on like that like its nothing bro u gotta go deeper into that
🤷 It's a spooky tea
