Top 10 favorite tea

I was hoping for something a little more historic and/or poetic, Lew. Alas, my dream is ruined.

How about East and West Factories?

You know a lot more Chinese than I do, but I get the impression that "Factory No. 1" and "Factory No. 2" would be more idiomatic. Maybe "East Wind" and "West Wind" would do, but wait, that sounds too much like the Cultural Revolution, doesn't it?

Hey Groupo,

Any ideas regarding teas (and tea-likes) that can reduce hypertension? Ku-ding's been suggested.

Thanks. Michael

I'm reposting with a proper subject line. Sorry.

realised just after posting that I was thinking of the chang radical (with its modern meaning of factory, old meaning of slope)

actually, I haven't a clue about guang, except that its now a simplified form (so might not carry the same meaning of the guang radical with its various meanings of 'expanse' 'vast' and also 'roof' and all the connotations that go with that .... no, looking in the dictionary, these meanings are under the same character in its trad form : guang radical with huang phonetic... or whatever.)

now I'm really confused

and now really really confused !

oo ~
