IS PRICE A GOOD INDICATOR OF FINE TEA?

Actually the best indicator of a fine tea is whether or not you think it is. Price, on the other hand, is definitely an indication of the grade and source of the tea. A special source or estate can have their teas in broken leaves (BOP) and you will pay less than the same estate’s tea in (FOP) or SFTGFOP. See sections on “Grades of Tea”. As well, some estates have very limited quantities and that naturally increases the price.
