About White2Tea
White2Tea is Paul Murray's pu-erh label. Murray, from Wisconsin, announced the shop on his TwoDog tea blog in 2012 and moved from Beijing to Guangzhou in 2015 because the humid climate suits pu-erh storage. He buys in Yunnan each spring and autumn and blends and presses most of what he sells.
The catalog is almost all pu-erh with blunt product names: ripe cakes like 2020 Old Reliable, small pressed minis, and raw cakes released by vintage. There is also a smoked lapsang, a few hybrids and Ruyao gaiwans. A monthly tea club ships worldwide. First order: 2020 Old Reliable for ripe, or a set of minis to sample several raw teas without buying 200 g cakes.
