I know that the choices available to me offline (ie. shops here in Melbourne) often don't measure up to the options online. Stephanie: Thanks for dropping by! I've been keeping an eye on your blog; love the design! Jo: Thanks for the correction. I think what I meant to say was that it's only *sold* for a few months a year - but obviously I hadn't written that! I'm really looking forward to trying some shincha come May.

If you never had shincha, try it, it is a really special treat. But don't make the mistake and try saving some for later, it has to be drunk up pretty fast or it loses its flavour and freshness.

The place I go to here in Oslo is quite expensive, although I love their teas and the ability to smell in advance. But now that I have a few favs, ordering those online seems like a pretty smart idea!! :) I might have to start ordering some of my teas online.
