Looking at their site they seem to sell all off brands. This can be good or bad depending on the brands. I don’t recognize most of the brands to know if they are any good. Maybe someone else on here will recognize their brands. Their prices seem high to me. I have never actually heard of them before so can offer no opinions other than what is on their website. I also don’t know if they are in China, US or Canada. If they are in the US or Canada you usually pay more for the tea.

I see now they are based in Los Angeles.

I notice they call Puerh Cha Gao, or instant Puerh, Puerh Expresso and charge a huge amount of money for it. You can get it much cheaper at Yunnan Sourcing or any number of other sources.

I’ve had a few samples from them and they were good. What do you mean by off brands? They also give many samples and free shipping if you spend over 75$.

By off brands they don’t sell the big name brands. No Dayi, Haiwan, etc. I think I saw a couple Langhe products on their website but none of the big companies. Little tea factories mostly it looks like. This can be good or this can be bad and I don’t have any way to know which is the case.

I did see an older Six Famous Tea Mountains production. But it looked seriously overpriced at something like $256. They are not that expensive a brand generally.

i found some good lower priced ones.

this one looks very promising to me. i think i’ll like it since i love smokey flavors: http://www.puerhjunky.com/product/11-bulang-green-brick-xinghai-tea-co/
