npub1ta5m9pvh5509kgv3l4p97d4xmrp6cl6urdukf0vdfjkyvuqeffusgs6v5g (npub1ta5…6v5g) on the subject of tea, my friend here in Aotearoa, is the tea buyer for TradeAid (one of the world's first 'fair trade' organisations)... and he tells of going to China to find fairtrade suppliers of loose tea, and meeting with a well known tea grower. When my friend explained (via interpreter) the (British-inspired) tea tastes of NZers the grower's face lit up. Turns out he was delighted with the idea he could sell them the bits the Chinese normally threw away 😂
