What tea is this? This was taken under natural sunlight
Yeah whisky prices have been leaking too, as well as luxury watches. I wrote a post maybe a decade ago…

Uh, nah
Thanks for sharing that website, I used it to look at a 2006 7542 which had also declined a lot…
Lawrence. Please contact me. No scam.
I have not gone down the aged sheng rabbit hole very far, I am not shocked to see the prices…

Uneven colorings among the leaves. Looks like Darjeeling (oolong?), as Rajiv observed, or Nepalese.

Judging by the colour, bright green, it must be Indian Black tea.
Labels make life so much easier.

Hmm, bright green, mixed and fairly broken…probably not a border tea. ’07 or ’08 Menghai blend?

the only things i can tell for certain about this leaf:
– picked by a woman (youngish)
– she was not speaking english when she picked it
and i’m sticking to the sheng pu-erh idea — either fang or tuo cha
tho i see why the others might say darjeeling in particular and they could be right.
