Another episode with both Alex and Derek of the One River Tea Cooperative. We sat down while in Anhui searching for Qimen Hongcha to talk about a summer trip Alex and Xiaoyan took to Zhangping, home of China’s only pressed oolong, the Zhangping Shuixian.

We als briefly talk about our experiences in Qimen County, just west of Huangshan, and the curious people and teas we haw encountered. We finish the episode talking about the Cooperative structure of One River Tea and muse on a few organizations that have a very impressive social element like the Pang Dong Lai grocery store in Xuchang Hunan.
