Here is an example of one of their marketing involvements:
http://www.food-offer.com/rd_p?p=113...pu%20erh%20tea
The offer is a total scam, if you read the "Program Requirements" you
must complete 8 undisclosed "offers" which include making purchases,
and even signing up for certain credit cards.

VINTAGEPU-ERHTEA.COM VINTAGEPU-ERHTEA.NET VINTAGEPU-ERH.NET
TOPSHELFPU-ERH.COM PU-ERHKING.COM are some of the other domains also
owned by Generation Tea. Why does a single company need so many domain
names?

They do get some of their aged teas from Teahub which tends to have
reputable teas, however they also get some of their teas from the
"Awazon" folks (and I have tasted aged offerings from them, some of
which Generation Tea sold), that are clearly not what they are
portrayed to be.

They do have some authentic teas, but their prices require taking out
a second mortgage....
