Please tell us about Viet Nam tea -- that is, if you aren't a bot. OK, tell us even if you are a bot. Michael

Just use it personally. I guess "supplier" was a little exaggerated term =]

Yeah, tell us about Vietnamese tea!

Good morning,

TeaGschwendner launched a new English website last October and is a pretty good bet for what you're looking for. The company has been around since the 70's over in Europe and currently has shops dedicated to loose leaf teas in 7 countries on four continents. They just came to the US but they buy direct from growers and have an incredible selection of loose teas.

Over the course of the year they have the new pluckings and flushes flown direct from some of the better gardens to their shops around the world so you'll find the freshest teas possible in the us.

Hope this helps.

Charles.
