As you already kno...Arthur, Thanks for stopping by. As you already know, Yi Ho Yeongs teas are superb. Without a doubt the best Korean tea Ive ever had. I am happy that you are providing everyone interested with the opportunity to try her teas.<br /><br />Park Jong Il,s tea wares are equally superb. He has a style that is at once very functional, down to earth and whimsical. I love em!Brethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10328523694226680438noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4175905265473304864.post-12238655254113678142013-09-28T06:18:10.814-07:002013-09-28T06:18:10.814-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.Brethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10328523694226680438noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4175905265473304864.post-67225140157068515592013-09-25T11:34:16.449-07:002013-09-25T11:34:16.449-07:00It is good to see you using Park Jong Il's tea...It is good to see you using Park Jong Il's teapot.

It is not her woojeong. She simply calls it her “special tea”. They sometimes produce teas between woojeon and sejak like Dong Cheon’s muwi-sejak or guk-woo produced by Soa Tea another artisan producer whose teas I offer. <br />The note reference re: Brother Anthony was not referring to his participation in making this tea but rather to his love of and his introduction of her and her teas. She is one of his favorite producers. His friend and co-author Hong Kyeong-Hee has made similar tea together with Yi Ho Young on a special occasion. <br />Her teas are truly Korean teas - hand picked and totally hand processed over an open wood fire. Very few others tea producers if any do this anymore it is a true venture of love. Many artisan producers are using small machines to roll their tea leaves and I don’t blame them. I have an arrangement with her to obtain her teas but must buy at retail prices. The tea you tasted sells for about $65 for 80g. I can get it. As you know I sell tea to promote Korean Art and Culture more than for great monetary profit. I may sell it at my cost. I'll be posting more on this tea and the producer on my Morning Crane Tea blog soon.Cho Hakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04798639210955177212noreply@blogger.com
