    The light beckons from the end of the tunnel, caterpillars are busting out of their gooey cocoons as moths and butterflies, and we are starting to flutter and barrel roll our way back out into the world. As we emerge and congregate, how cool would it be to identify your fellow Rogues at a glance? Surgical grade masks with a single golden-yellow ear strap are a cheeky, subtle way to do just that! Read more about them at www.scamstuff.com/products/modern-rogue-masks. We’re giving away packs of 50 Modern Rogue masks to THREE winners of this week’s free giveaway. Enter for free at gimme.scamstuff.com for a chance to win (no purchase necessary, giveaway ends 7/22/2021). Congrats to the winners of last week's Rogue's Revenge giveaway: Caleb Shields and Manohar M. (we will contact you via email within the next two weeks.)

      So, pretty late to answer, but if you want to learn more, So-Han has a youtube channel, the one he plugs at the end of the video (TeaHouse Ghost) where he basically has a series (that ended only a couple months ago) that talks about this whole process, the tools used, how to use them, he talkes about every type of tea in it's own, long and very in-depth episode as well as giving an overview over the different types. I can't recommend it enough!

    This episode was so awesome and the promo code absolutely sold me. i cannot wait to visit the West China Tea House when i get a chance. i just purchased my own tea set and master cup, along with several small single servings of tea and a couple larger portions as well. This was one of my favorite episodes of any youtube channel in a while

      Yupe. The way I enjoying Chinese tea is in free style. No a junk of ceremonies. There are thousands type of Chinese tea in different price range from few bucks to hundreds thousand. In fact, the Chinese tea can be categorised in 6 main type by the fermentation level, from mild to strong. White, Yellow, Green, Oo long, Black and Dark tea. I like Dark tea more than others.

    7:09~ 8:15~ That means:
    1 _bing_ (餅) = 357 g
    ≈ 12.6 oz.
    ≈ 72 servings
    1 _tong_ (筒) = 7 _bings_ (餅)
    = 2.499 kg
    ≈ 5.5 lbs.
    ≈ 504 servings
    1 _jian_ (件) = 12 (or 40) _tongs_ (筒)
    = 84 (or 280) _bings_ (餅)
    = 29.99 (or 99.96) kg
    ≈ 66.1 (or 220.4) lbs.
    ≈ 6048 (or 20160) servings
    So a horse is/has been worth a little under 30 (or 100) kg (a little over 66 {or 220} lbs.) of tea. I’ve also heard that a _jian_ (件) is 40 _tongs_ (筒) so I also put that calculation in as well.
