Well, we’ve had a bit of a strange time with the shipping of our puerh pressings this year.  The postal agent we used in China mixed up the boxes and posted them in the wrong order.  Most of the boxes have arrived so far, but it seems the Bulang cakes are lagging behind somewhere.  Hopefully they’ll arrive safely in the next week or so.

For those of you who’d preordered cakes and included the Bulang cakes in your order, I’m sorry – there’s a little more to wait, but I hope it’s worth it in the end.  For those who’d preordered other cakes, without the Bulang, I’ll be sending out your orders over the next few days.  Thanks so much to all of you for your patience.

For those of you who didn’t preorder, I’ll start to list the cakes that have arrived in the next few days.  There’ll also be samples available for these.  You can expect puerh cakes from Nannuo, Banpen, Bangwai, Mansai and Manmai.

We also have organic 2010 Spring Oolongs from Taiwan, an excellent 2010 Spring Lapsang Souchong from an organic producer Kathy met during her recent trip to Wuyi and some new aged puerhs ready to list soon.

Just a quick note to those who’d requested it – the 1997 Hen Li Chang Bulang cakes are now back in stock, also the 1996 Menghai 8582 and the 2001 Jin Chang Hao.

Our 2010 Spring Puerhs just began to arrive last week, hopefully the rest will follow soon.  Once they’ve all arrived I’ll begin to post them on the site and send out parcels to those who’d placed preorders for cakes.

I returned from my trip to China and Taiwan this week & should have some new things appearing over the course of the next couple of weeks.  Our newly pressed puerh bings will take a while longer to be pressed and arrive back in the UK, but should start to arrive in around 5-6 weeks.
