Expensive Teas Tease


Here are some examples…

Read the rest of the article on The Taste of English Tea Blog.

My experience with this tea and cost calculations:

Young Pu-erh — one of the less expensive pu-erhs (some are priced in the hundreds of dollars for a “brick”); I got 3 tasty infusions and a 4th that was a bit weak. The cost calculates out as follows:
























Purchase price:  about $1 per ounce
(a lot cheaper than luxury
items like caviar)
Amount used per steeping session:  about 1/10th of an ounce
Cost per steeping session:  about 10 cents
No. of cups per steeping session:  4
Cost per cupful:  2.5 cents (try to buy a cup
of coffee for that!)


Review Part I, Part II.
