China's tea-growing Pu'er is now its coffee capital


By LEESAN
The Pu’er Yixingshan Tea Farm offers an immersive Pu’er tea-themed experience.

My old friend, BSL, finds joy in indulging himself in the world of Chinese teas, and Pu’er tea definitely has a special place in his heart. He has always wanted to travel to the epicentre of China’s Pu’er tea culture in Yunnan province, to stroll leisurely in the expansive tea gardens and stay at least a night in one of the the local accommodations.

He looked me up to help him plan his “tea country pilgrimage” trip, and of course, I was more than happy to do it. In fact, I was also excited about the trip as I had been wanting to search for the much-hyped Pu’er coffee.
