Cowboy, Melinda -
This tea has an interesting feature - I brew it for 20 times and it does not
loose the ability to produce quite dark soup even then. The color is dark
yellow without as much as a hint of red.
Also it stays rolled/crinkled - I mean it never completely unfold into
leaves.
Sergei does not sell here but there is always a possiblity... He may sell
you some tea and put it together with the tea he sends to me once in a
while. Or he may send you the tea directly from Taiwan. he is leaving for
Taiwan tomorrow - so if you send him an email, who knows...
Sasha.
