Sharing excellence

About

In a world where everybody shouts, we let our tea speak for us.

We spend 95% of effort on sourcing great tea, and the remaining 5% is spread between customer service, marketing, pictures, packaging, making videos.

For most tea sellers, the balance is very different, it’s up to you to choose what you prefer.

We choose to not bow down to the social media/marketing driven economy, instead we trust people to be able to tell quality by trying the actual Tea.

It’s the privilege of a small business to pursue the very best without concerns about making profit and I’m very grateful to be in the position to operate like this.

There are the reviews about us from the two most serious online puerh blogs:

  1. Puerh.uk review on Mattcha
  2. Puerh.uk review on Puerh.blog (+ another review of Puerh.uk gua feng zhai and all the Puerh.uk reviews here)

Also included in the service:

  • Fast express shipping (Royalmail and DHL) with a generously low free shipping threshold
  • Tea stored in mylar bags to be at proper humidity for long term storage
  • Excellent good customer service / tea chat line

About Me

Puerh (aged sheng puerh particularly) is my current main life project.

I’ve been drinking Puerh for many years, many many different ones and great in different ways, from the common to the legendary, with many different teachers, lovers, producers, collectors.

Picture: a younger me teaching a cup comparison session

 

It was so difficult finding actual higher tier puerh online and even in my travels in Taiwan and Malaysia, this prompted me to set off on a quest to find the very best I could.

The very best… with good price/quality ratio! It’s very easy to throw a lot of money at tea, but to drink T4-T5 at affordable prices, that’s both the dream and the adventure I now share with you.

The quest is still in progress and always will be, but I think I’ve got far enough to have something to share with you.

A more expanded bio is available in the Teaching page.
