Description

In this episode Derek talks about pressed tea. Why is compressed tea so popular these days, what unique virtues does it possess, and what does it take to press tea into these 100, 200, or 375 gram disks that are so common to see in teashops all around the mainland. We muse on the creative process of running a business and circle back to the existential dilemma of sourcing ‘good tea’. We also talk about the pressing process for these teas in Lincang, Yunnan. As always, the best way to support tea soup is to subscribe to our podcast, our YouTube channel, our instagram and of course browse any of the teas we source at onerivertea.com thanks for all the support!
