Lol, the package is empty. Boss brought it back to me from China last time he went. It is a loose leaf Pu-erh I have since found out.

No, it is Hei Cha, chinese call it dark or black tea. Not the same as black tea in the US.

Yep it says pu'er tea, but I can't quite make out the brand (never really enjoyed trying to decipher Chinese calligraphy!)

The authentic stuff ought to have a 4 digit recipe number on it, indicating the year of production, tea grade, and factory of production. Eg. 9236 means 1992, 3rd Grade from Kunming Tea company. I suspect the loose leaf tea may not be so stringent with this, though.

Hei Cha is literally "Black Tea" translated from Mandarin.

Ugh.

Please.

There is no such language as chinese.

Try Mandarin or Cantonese. The two official languages of the contry.

I THINK MY AMERICAN LANGUAGE IS CLEAR RIGHT?!

I am tempted to rebut your claims, JCVD, but the greater part of me simply wants to abstain from responding to your discreet trolling :P
