wow, that's a nice store.
over the weekend I spent some time and a little money at the Harney & Sons store in SoHo, it's about 3 blocks from the office. It is a really nice tasting room and has a tea lounge in the back. Walking up to the tasting bar, you just ask the lass behind the counter to suggest a tea or whatever tea you'd like to try. Everyone in the group got a different tea and it was interesting to have the tea presented to us in different states, dry, infused leaves, and liquor. Those that could smell were really able to smell the differences in the different states. Teas that smelled strong of fruit did not necessarily provide liquor that was as fruity.
I picked up another oolong a Li Shan based on the young lady's recommendation and sample. It is also quite creamy.
