A review of their Puer tea products on http://www.teachat.com/ |
There are several boutique vendors I know in Yunnan who make very high quality puer cakes from old trees. They are all Koreans (as I am) and they probably sell 99% of them to their customers in Korea. I was lucky enough to find one of them through Korean IP. He will ship this year's tea samples for free if you pay the shipping. (I just received samples a few days ago. It was 186RMB via EMS to USA) His cakes are not cheap by any measures, but the quality is incredible. Unfortunately, he does not really have a website in English but anyone wants to try the samples, I can relay the message to him.
I personally bought several cakes from him over past few years and I can tell you his quality is as good as any out there in the world of puer.
He does have a paypal account so you can do easy transactions if you decide to order samples or purchase later on.
Added: BTW, when you order samples, you will receive 5 to 6 each 20~25g packages. If you want to order, you can email him directly at muhwaga naver.com or send me a message and I will help you get in touch with him.
Edit 2; I am not related with him in anyway or associated with his business. I just want to share and enjoy good puer with my fellow puer drinkers. |
