Yunnan Tiocha or $1.49
Gusy -
Several days ago I bought some (actually all of them) Yunnan TuoCha 100g single mushrooms Green Puerh from a Chinese store in SF bay area @1.49 each and 1 pound HongKong-made black beencha for $5.99. While I am not a big fan of black puerh, (its a good quality puerh, just not my taste) the green TuoCha is fabulous, fabulous, fabulous. I bought all they had and am looking forward raiding them again. Apparently Chinese in the US are not very interested in these and looked at me with funny faces when I cleaned the shelf. Another stupid laowai! As the owner told me with a sigh, his Chinese customers buy mostly teabag teas. He himself was drinking loose Long Jin the smell of which made my knees weaken  Sasha.

Does the wrapper say JIA JI TUOCHA, and does the Chinese mention standards it obeys but not its origin? If so, come to New York and get it for $1.25, or $5 for a 5-pack. /Lew --- Lew Perin / http://www.panix.com/~perin/babelcarp.html
