Jennifer Nieves I've been trying to look up a phone number for in Pursuit of Tea, but all the numbers that come up ate disconnected. How do I order the Scarlet Glow?

Julie Reiser I drank your Karigane Kukicha at Craft Bar in NYC. It was utterly delicious. You are one of the few vendors around the world--it seems--who actually sells this tea.

In Pursuit of Tea I recommend brewing Gyokuro with iced cubes in a yixing or very small teapot, it is the perfect refreshment to the heat of August. The tea is ready when the ice has melted. It tastes like miles of freshly mowed grass, gently cooled by an approaching thunderstorm. -Karen

This tea comes from Nepal, just over the border with Darjeeling, India. The style is similar to a Darjeeling second flush.

The buyers - tasting the tea before buying. Love the chaotic energy!

Tasting the tea seems a bit more reasonable than wandering around lost without knowing.

Looking down at the sellers - mostly selling Tieguanyin...hundreds of farmers or their family members come early in the morning to sell their tea.

How do you choose among all those teas? They must really have a good eye for it. And nose too perhaps.

We didn't buy tea from the market, it was just fun to go see! We bought directly at the farm.
