Mike,

Thanks, Mike. Placed my order with Jing, some samples, a bing and a few
tuos totaling about 750g. I'm looking forward to sampling a variety of
young pu-erhs. I also ordered the 70's GYG from Hou De. It seemed a bit
frivolous for someone of my means to pay that much for 10g of tea, but at
least I will be able to say I've tasted 30 year old pu-erh.

Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
