Nah. It's actually none-too-expensive, but tea cakes generally are a whole other level—I'm getting close to cultural appropriation here. -

Nice. Pu-erh is my favorite tea. There's a tea shop that sells some very old and way too expensive pu-erh that I indulge in sometimes.

That label is so racist. Also, pu-erh sounds more like a coffee amirite?

What with the hipsters and pu-erh tea? Maybe I missed a marketing campaign somewhere. As Chinese teas go, pu-erh seems to have been elevated beyond reason by tea enthusiasts in the USA.

I think because it's so different. Hipsters like arbitrarily old processes (hence the chemex nonsense, vinyl, tea crap, etc., etc.) I like it because 10g of good pu-erh tea can make like 10-15 cups. Rebrewing is clearly superior.

No, thanks, but hubby would like to order the kit for growing a full head of hair, with the beard option, please. He already has the flannel shirts.
