Generation Tea?

I have never bought anything from them, but judging from the prices and the information they provide, I wouldn't buy anything from them. Overpriced, to say the least.

Oh, this is the vendor that sells Hawaiian pu'er on Amazon.com. Yes, Hawaii. :)

The product description on Amazon is very liberal and it makes you think it's written to snare potentially uninitiated consumers. While on the own website, the description of the same tea is more reserved.

I have never dealt with Generation Tea, but a "caveat emptor" disclaimer is certainly appropriate here. $60 for a cooked 2001 Haiwan beeng???? Wow!

Nevermind my post. They corrected the Amazon entry to Haiwan, which is correct. Just 2 weeks ago it used to be "Hawaiian".

Actually, from what I remember of the "Haiwaiian" business, it was deliberate and not a typo, because it included phrases that said something to the effect of "Great tea is not only produced in China! We are proud to present this tea from our Haiwaiian factory!"

Which means it was specifically NOT a typo and deliberately typed to mislead consumers. I posted a message on Amazon about Haiwaiian factory and it seems like they got it.
