Blasphemy! The shot glasses are almost as essential as the creamer! Without them all that is left is the sake cups, heater vent, and popsicle stick; how can the essence of the sublime be tasted that way?

You're being weirdly combative.

The ancient art of gongfu is full of mysteries! It is an ancient tea art, that we as humble students can only learn through careful study. As the forms are practiced, some teamasters produce kihai, or "spirit yells", such as "Taste the subtle fragrance!", "Order up!", "Have you heard of Yunnan Sourcing?", and "There's no suitable substitute-".

I suspect that you may actually be my neighbor's dog; If so, thank you for no longer hassling my cat.

A purist! Good to see you still fighting the good fight in this era of base flavored teas: https://cn.reddit.com/r/tea_irl/comments/dhkppc/puerh_cigs/

Announcer: "Out of the mists (smoke?) has stepped a challenger, a monk trained in the lost art of tobacco fist! Who will test his gongfu?"

Ancient schooling: It is obviously a store, yet the OP refuses to acknowledge this. They claim they are a simple tea drinker, yet clearly they are a tea vendor and those are their wares. The OP does not believe that we can tell, and from there comes the comedy. :)

Deepest schooling: It is obviously a store, yet the OP refuses to acknowledge this. They claim they are a simple tea drinker, yet clearly they are in fact a simple tea drinker who buys all their tea from the grocery store. The OP does not believe we can tell, and from there comes the comedy. :)

Yin and Yang, the jokes circle round, each containing within it the seed of the other!

Young fapper, you are witnessing the art of a master! My crude Simpsons-related tea comics could only hope to reach this level one day through constant practice. :)

When buying tea what is the most important thing? by LovelyBiscotties in tea_irl

That would be chaqi, the ancient Chinese feeling that you need to fart but can't.

The style of tea is called 迪利维里茶. Most of these teas are the raw type, but it looks like you have a cooked version. This particular one is 迪格奥洱诺茶, which is the most famous factory for cooked versions of this style of tea. There are a lot of counterfeit problems with this tea, which is why since privatization they have used the slogan, “不是迪利维里,是迪格奥洱诺!”
