I have been tempted to purchase tea from the Boh website but concluded the
shipping just wasn't worth it. I have found a couple other places that sold
Boh tea. One of those was the Carnelian Rose Tea site, but I don't see
Boh/Cameronian tea listed there anymore. I also like Boh as a basic, mellow
tea (I visited one of their plantations and sampled their tea when I was a
kid, so it has a certain nostalgia value), but have only tried their more
generic variety. From their website it seems that they have several grades
that I would be curious to taste.
