I bought some really great jasmine tea (moli xiang zhu hua cha, rolled into little pearl-sized balls) when I was in Hong Kong at a shop called Fook Ming Tong. They're the kind of tealeaves you can brew again and again, extra jasmine-infused (the lady at the store said they're good for about seven pots). It was about $30-50 for 300 grams, if I remember correctly.
It's The Seriously Good Shit.
Anyway, I thought I'd given it all away to friends and family, but I just found a sizeable stash of it in my desk at work.
I don't even care that it's raining outside and my socks and underwear are soaking and I'm covered in road grime and I only slept for 5 hours last night (I keep waking up at 5am and am unable to get back to sleep). Fook Ming Tong tea, you just totally made my day.
