Does anyone have experience with this particular pu erh which is stored in an empty bamboo cane (zhutong).

Thanks.

Hobbes had a recent blog entry about that IIRC.

Ah, here it is. http://half-dipper.blogspot.com/2010/09 ... utong.html

I've seen a couple videos on YouTube on how to open them. One of them was "How to use a tea knife with David Lee Hoffman part 1"

Cool, that pu erh variety must be awesome. Look forward to putting my hand on it, if I found out who sells it. Not an easy task as I have already done a G. search for it and nothing (maybe in Chinese I would have more luck but I can't read the language), so waiting here until someone chimes in and provides the asnwer.

YS probably sells others if you look around the site, search for 'bamboo'

Cool, well spotted. Thanks, man.
