Although Upton's choices in most other types of tea is very
good (IMHO), they have only ever carried a few pu-erhs, all
black up to this time. I've tried a couple and didn't care for them.

However, now I notice they have, for the first time, a green
pu-erh in tuo cha form (7-8 grams per). Has anybody tried it?
If so, what were your impressions? The description says it is
made from "fine buds of Yunnan's heirloom tea trees", and the
flavor is described as "vegetal, with notes of wild honey and
dried fruit." This sounds attractive, but at a price of around
$0.35 per gram, it is way out of my normal range. Looking
for opinions of you experience pu-erh drinkers out there.
