Strange isn´t it. A few weeks ago I discovered a long forgotten stash
of mainland Oolongs in my cellar. They´ve been kept airtight in
aluminum-foil bags but didn´t survive it. 3 years and they´re dead.
One TGY from the WuYi area [chinese marketing gag ?] I kept in a box
upstairs for around 2 years tastes as good as "fresh".
I´d really like to know if there are any special processing techniques
behind this ?!?!
Time to get back to China, sniff ...
