Cheap. The effect is good. Does not have the pollution or harms, it is able to clean your tooth, certainly also could clean teapot. :)

Makes sense. It's a convenient super-fine abrasive. Very handy as a plastic polish too, and for grinding out scratches in CDs and polycarbonate lenses.

Yep. That's not a big problem if your CD stinks of toothpaste for a while. Now, if you don't mind that smell on your Yixing pots...

Doesn't it leave a "refreshing minty taste" in the pot?

The last movie (Cleaning a Yixing clay teapot) does not seem to work; my Windows Media Player refuses to play it. Does anyone else have the same problem with it?

clean it with water carefully, in boils above 30 minutes with tea, only tea flavor.

JUST use for NEW pot or OLD USED pot.

I had the same problem

Thanks for the advertisement for your site, we surely do appreciate it.

BTW, your pots are outrageously expensive. Buyer beware.

There are some things that I would like to ask you about your gongfu style.

I have never seen anyone use sniffing glasses (xiang bei, wen bei) with Da Hong Pao before. It's usually done with Tie Guan Yin or the Taiwan Gao Shan teas. Also, why didn't the girl smell the actual tea before drinking? It seems rather a rather stylized version of gongfu tea.

I can log into your website, i want to collect all website about tea, if you are interest in it ,you can send your info to me.Website logo:(A small pic with 180X60) Website Name(company name): Website link: Introduction: You don't need to pay anything to us.Our website is

What is it about these guys starting websites in China? This guy is just as bad as the china-teapot guy. The TeaHistory is more like TeaPlagiarism.com as all of the English articles and many of the graphics on the site were stolen from other sites/businesses. This guy is even worse as he is claiming a copyright by placing Copyright ©

I investigated every article in the Puerh section and every single article and picture was stolen. The guy even had enough nerve to ask me via email for links to my site, he didn't say that he would also steal my content.

For that matter every single English article I checked was stolen. I'm sorry, I "assume" they are stolen because many of them are from businesses like "Gray and Seddon" that I feel certain would not have given permission.

Could someone who is Chinese (literally from China) please tell me if this behavior considered to be OK in China? Is it normal and accepted? Is intellectual property considered fair game for anyone to steal? Or are these guys considered unethical there? It certainly is not acceptable in the West.

Hehe, Adagio and Generation Tea are advertising there, it appears that they don't mind this behavior.

Are you saying you don't like the aroma?

Ha, you could do a web search in Chinese, and out of 10 websites, the information would be exactly the same. It's copy copy copy all the time. It takes a lot of time and effort to translate some Chinese text into English - and it would probably be muddled English at best; and it's so much easier to copy. So when one can find a good site, one is more likely to copy the information.

But I always find, the quality of information in Chinese about tea on the web is not as good as what is printed in books.

In China, everyone does that kind of thing. Sometimes, they say at the bottom where the text originated from. But who really knows? But then, there are some sites that also have original material - mostly on BBS.

My guess (at least for Adagio) is that they don't know. Didn't do their homework I guess. I'll tell them about the plagerism. Thanks Mike! Marlene

Thanks for the response. I understand that it is done frequently but is it considered ethical by the Chinese people? Do the Chinese webmasters consider it to be wrong but they are just being lazy, or do they think that they are allowed to do whatever they want and copyrights dont count. I am honestly trying to understand the Chinese culture about this type of thing.
