The Dao of Tea: Ramblings on Tea Storage

Every step of a tea leaf’s journey, from the tree to your lips, must be reliable.
The secret of good tea lies not in how fine the raw material is, nor how high the price, but in how good the storage is.
The secret of storage lies not in the channel, but in sealing (or an equivalent effect).
Simply saying “Guangdong storage” is not precise — it is merely a geographic concept; one should distinguish between pure dry Guangdong storage and non-pure-dry Guangdong storage.
To judge a tea’s quality without considering its storage is like water without a source, a tree without roots.
Prefer teas that are well sealed, or those freshly released to market.
With good storage, even a Lincang tea can rival Banzhang.
A person is valued for character; a tea is valued for storage.
