Pu-erhs at Samovar Tea Loung

Actually if you click on the price list those teas are $200.00 per tou cha. Those price appear to be the prices for a cup from the menu at the shop.

Yes, thanks. I noted my mistake after I posted. $200.00 still seems pretty low for a tea of those vintages.

Even on a per pot basis the prices are quite reasonable. At $200 per

Maybe I'll try to convince them to sell me small pieces of some of their teas.

Cheers,

Cameron,

It's a good thought. I was burned on a similar purchase (1949) from Rishi awhile back where the tea turned out to be mediocre at best, actually poor. I believe that a 1930 pu-erh, well made and well stored, would command much more than $200.00. My experience is, however, limited, and I'd be happy to find I'm wrong. Perhaps let's investigate a bit further.
