Glad you showed that this is a cake, and not one of those boxed samples. All the boxed ones I’ve had have been frankly awful, dried out and sometimes soapy tasting.
Hi Cwyn,
Thanks. Yes, I’m glad too. Much easier to figure out a tea when it’s freshly pried!
Cheers,

I like the idea of comparing Yiwu puerhs.
Thanks Uncle Larry! Next ep will be two cheaper budget “Yiwu” options.
Cheers,

seems Sample Tea is closed/out of business? Get error msg, “pg not found”, when try to click on the “contact us” link.
Hi gm,
I think they’re still around. Try contacting via the Fine Puer site (run by the same folks). That’s how I eventually reached Alan.
Cheers,
