... Hi folks,
I heard about Pu'erh yesterday and I'm intrigued. After reading the
About.com article, which is really just one guy's opinions, I am
curious what you folks think is the best type of Pu'erh to get. My
local Asian supermarket sells a few kinds of Pu'erh.
For instance, is there a particular Chinese brand that is good or bad?
And which is best approach to fermentation? My goals are improved
health, since this tea has been shown to lower cholesterol, and
flavor.
Also, (since I am also posting this to soc.culture...) if the
container lacks any English text, what characters indicate the various
characteristics?
Thanks.

Yes, this newsgroup is well known for its being troll-infested with anti
China characters that vent their real-life frustrations in cyber space by
bashing everything that is Chinese.

Oh!! come om, JV, you're too hard on them. We are only pointing out
divergent views of the subject under discussion.
