I have lost track on how long it’s been, but since someone asked, I jogged my memory back to maybe 12 plus years, coming to Wenshan, buying Mr. Lee’s Baochong. Why do I never buy from another? Well, there’s the fact that Mr. Lee keeps improving every year, leaving his fellows in the dust from winning awards to completely selling out each and every season. Then there is the human relationship factor. The fact that we know each other and he knows how I like my tea, and I know how he lights up when he talks about his bees, somehow deepens every cup of Baochong I drink. I don’t want my tea made by a stranger.
