Hi Nico,

Which kind of Bamboo did you try that you liked, can you describe it?
There are about 6-8 distinctly different types that I am aware of. Was
it cooked or raw? Was it formed into tablets, wrapped in paper, then
placed in a Bamboo case? Was it formed into tablets, wrapped in paper,
then wrapped in bamboo leaves? Was it simply compressed into a bamboo
cane? Or was it just a long pipe shaped stick of tea? Describe it and I
might be able to steer you in the right direction.

Mike
