Mei Leaf
Mei Leaf was founded in London in 2006.
The owner, Don Mei, has a very charming personality and posts a lot of information content on his YouTube channel. While Don Mei and his marketing tactics are sometimes regarded as ‘gimmicky’, his content is very well-made and certainly entertaining.
It’s worth noting that there has been some concern and controversy over their labeling of pu’er tea in regards to the tree age, but I am not going to take sides on that matter.

Farmerleaf
Farmerleaf often shares his insight into the Chinese tea business on his YouTube channel.
The owner occasionally goes off on philosophical rants while processing tea, and I enjoy those very much.

Yunnan Sourcing
Yunnan Sourcing is a very popular Western-facing tea vendor.
The owner Scott has a popular YouTube channel, but for the most part, his videos are about the teas he sells. It would be nice if he spent more time simply talking about tea on his YouTube channel, as it’s perhaps a bit promotional.
