Malaysian International Tea Cultural Expo
http://www.teaculturalexpo.com/fair2008.htm

Just want to remind those who are in or in the vicinity of Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia that the Malaysia International Tea Cultural Expo is on from today and the rest of the next week at Berjaya Times Square in central Kuala Lumpur city.

The website is all in Chinese - apologies to the english reading portion - but thats the way the tea market in Malaysia is oriented!

Cheers!

I dropped by yesterday but not able to stay long - don't miss having a look at the teapots brought by Chen Yuan Hao to display next to his stall (actually more like a large space!). Some very nice pots and what is stated to be a genuine ancient teapot.

Sorry I forgot my camera! Perhaps if I make a repeat visit I will try to get some pics.

Malaysian International Tea Cultural Expo

Was in the expo for the first three days.
Was not dissapointed this time compare to last two expo.
The prices of the tea had significantly dropped.
Had bought some Yr08 Menghai 8582 Sheng Cake costed on at about USD 6.00 per pc.
(last year with same type of tea would have easily costed me USD 10.00.)

This time around could see a more subdue atmosphere in the Expo as the price of the tea are more "realistic".
However, Aged Sheng tea was not much affected by the price drop. (the price of a 1996 sheng Xia Guan Toh Cha cost about USD$60.00 per pc) and infact I could see some price increase of some aged sheng cake like the 80s Kwang Tong Koong Peng is now selling at USD$500.00.Most of the 90s sheng tea are selling at price range of USD $70.00 to $100.00.

I would say if anyone of you are keen to buy some tea for own consumption or collection, I think this is right time purchase some tea.
