I know a lot of you enjoy various kinds of bamboo tea. I just stumbled across this video on the Hou De blog site and thought you would enjoy seeing the tea-making process.
I found it very beautiful.

I’m amazed at how tightly the tea is packed and how gentle the roast is.
I guess I expected the bamboo to burn.

Don’t you think? The tea is made by the Bulang ethnic group, who along with the Hani and Dai are considered one of the main stewards of ancient puerh tea tress.

Hmmm. I’m very tempted by this tea. I’ve been waiting to try a good bamboo puerh, this one looks exceptional.
