I visited Tea Trekker last month. I brought my book written by the owner, “The Tea Enthusiast’s Handbook”, so I could make my selections. The initial welcome was lukewarm, however, as I started asking questions, she warmed up. I found Mary Lou to be very knowledgable! As someone who wants to explore Pu-erh, she was very helpful in making my choice, and I might add, she was correct! Prices aren’t to bad, and the choices are alittle limited, which ensures fresh tea.

All in all, it was a pleasurable experience. She even offered to sign my book, which I took her up on.

“The” place to go for tea, and if you’re anywhere near the area make the detour. Once I showed interest in real tea I was enthusiastically shown many teas of which I bought small amounts of all. So far they have all been wonderful especially the Sencha Fukamushi Mt. Awantake. Wow! I wish this place was in my neighborhood.
