Stumbled across this and thought folks might enjoy it, as a few old TeaChat regulars were interviewed.
2012 Pu'er article in the LA Times
I remember reading that article when it was published with great interest, saving the clipping for future reference since I was interested in finding a tea group here. This article actually eventually lead me to TeaChat. @phyllsheng I think was an early member, Linda Louie now runs Bana Tea Company focusing on puerh, Jason Fasi recently started Three Bears Tea, Will Yardley I’m not sure about, maybe @debunix knows.
