About Northwest Tea Festival
These are the teas we brought to the 16th Northwest Tea Festival in Seattle on September 26–27, 2026. From our booth at the main entrance, we poured about 4,000 cups of old-arbor pu-erh over two days. For many visitors, it was their first taste of tea from Yunnan's ancient tea mountains.
The collection covers both kinds of pu-erh we served. Raw (sheng 生) teas such as Lao Ban Zhang, Bing Dao, Na Ka and Chen Sheng #1 are bright and sweet, and keep developing as they age. Ripe (shou 熟) teas such as Run Ye, Rong Pu and Chen Pi Sheng Xiang are smooth, earthy and ready to drink now. New to pu-erh? Start with the Yi Pin Chen Sheng Sample Box.
