Tea is often easy to find in grocery stores, but many people are getting sick of grocery store quality teabags, which are typically comprised of low-quality broken tea leaves. Since local tea shops aren’t as prevalent in the Western world as they are in Asia, it’s usually easier to simply look for tea online.
This becomes even more true when looking for harder to source styles of tea, such as pu’er tea.
If you’re having difficulty sourcing quality tea online, then consider giving one of our recommended tea vendors a try.
