Hi Don and Celine. My 8yo daughter Hannah and I had a great time drinking Young Gushu whilst being part of this live tea party! Thanks so much for the shout out! Hopefully next time my wife and two sons will also join us for Tea Session #6! (for an early Sunday morning in Australia!). Regards.

I am very happy I was a part of your audience. Be always well guys!

[ongoingmartin]

Well, that was tea-motional. Great stuff, as always!

i wish i was there with you yesterday. i just came back from taiwan with kilos of tea including 300g of the best oriental beauty i could find in taipei! it's an amazing tea with high geranium, fruits and honey flavors! -it's almost medicinal with all this terpins aromas (also bought aged oolong 2006, and a lot of high mountain tea) i became a tea geek because of this channel so thank you a lot mai leaf! i couldn't do it without you :)
a note about finding oriental beauty in taiwan: it was really hard to find a good one, the price not always represent the quality. but it is a good guide to start your journey. the cheap ones are really bad and the really expensive ones are decent to excellent, never buy a tea without tasting it before!

Thanx. Im really enjoying the tea from your shop got it on black Friday.

Just managed to get back home, just in time to have missed the live broadcast.. oh well, I guess I'm gonna have my own tea party now while watching the recording :D

[maflo]

hey don, you keep asking us to tell you which videos we would like you to make. So my ideas are: tea history video (simular to the old vs new world video), travelling videos of course or i'm personally really interested in taiwanese oolongs and i would really appreciate it to learn more about it. Please keep doing these awesome videos!

[denisemi]

Loved it!!!! I will miss our tea sessions over the holidays!

[keithjacobson]

LOL! I have indeed, on multiple occasions, left spent leaves in a gaiwan for days! I've lived!

Another good one, scary but fun, love you teaheads

[Skeletonfinger]

I am realy glad that you chose my simple photshop job with the sheeps :D Firstly i did not even plan to make the one with sheeps it was just to make it 3 photos :D

[NBASS]

Nice coincidence...just watching on repeat, drinking Little Tong Mu, and all of a sudden you take it out :)

[mskittycutthroat]

8pm uk time is 4am here in perth😫😫 maybe next time I won't we working the day after and be able to join in! By the way I love Celine's jacket 😍👌

[OfficiallySarabi]

Celine's giggle in the beginning hahaha. If the next one is in Feb, I should be able to make it, even though it'll be 4AM for me. These seem super fun

[Naragacuga]

Hey Don, how do you wash your tea towels. I'm afraid that if I use detergent it might get on my teapot. Is boiling water enough to wash them? Or how do you do it? Thanks!

[katystraw]

You look so hyper guys 😜 it was so much watching you. Do you know why I got my notification about your life video later then it actually started? Also, I got another notification a few days after you updated one of your videos. I don’t want to miss out
..any suggestions on what to do, please? Thank you! Love the tea xxx

[JinBack]

Nice tip at 1:16:30, sadly I cut the boxes apart (the boxes were nice too T_T) and put them on my ziploc bags (description and brewing instrucitons) with doublesided tape ...

[RissaJoans]

Hey Mei Leaf! Love your channel, I was hoping for a video on reusing tea leaves where you all might give answers to how to do multiple steeps for different types of tea leaves (will the times & temp vary?) and how long it is alright to leave your teas for, until your next brewing? I tend to drink the same kind of tea all day, re-steeping and leaving my drained leaves for hours at a time while working. What do you all say about this? Thanks!

[osuasheuatl]

A number of people have asked about Myshkin's name. Is it same to assume it's from Dostoevsky ("The Idiot")? Are you folks fans of Russian literature? It's a great name for a kitty; "myshch" is Russian for mouse.
Wish I could have made it for the stream! I'll be there for the next.
