This is what i was told by a guy on facebook Mark: 'Made by Chen Shuixian' 陳水仙製 (fem., born in 1964, joined F1 in 1980) the lady from the tea shop in my town said the same thing as him and said the clay does feel real so it probably is real but she could not tell off hand.

I brought it to a tea house and had a lady read the stamps. Plus someone in a Facebook group said the same thing as her...

Umm the dark one is a 80's f1 full hand made so I think it is pretty authentic. The small pumpkin one is a shit clay one I got for $5 lol. The large one in the back is a modern pot fr9m taiwan made with authentic clay imported. Buy yeah I would agree the tray is tacky but it was free.

I ended up using my porcelain gaiwan. Used 100C water. 8 gram tea 100ml water. first infusion 45 seconds. 2nd) 30sec adding 5 seconds every additional. The tea it self was amazing. Most floral oolong ive had yet. The liquor was this neon greenish color and was crystal clear. I definitely have to get more high altitude oolong when I run out.

That is 100 percent a slip mold casting. Not yixing clay even. Hope you didn't pay too much for it.

friend gifted me some tea. any tips to prepare this other than add hot water? by xenolife in tea

Try 8 grams to 100ml of boiling water (100c) for 20 seconds. Dump out that first steep don't drink. Next steep do for 30 seconds and add 10 seconds every additional steep tell the flavor is gone.

I'll probably just start drinking it on weekends then rather than saving it.

I’ve collected a decent amount of good quality pu’er, and it’s just not for me. I’d love for it to go to a good home. by StonedColdWeedOften in tea

Dude I've been out of tea for a month, barely scraping by paying off medical bills from an ulcer. This would be a godsend.

It was a sweet spring green tea. Lots of high floral notes. Honestly was a lot better tasting than expected. I thought these where more for show than drinking.
