The story / Pakli

The character’s story

Pakli appeared in an imaginary workshop from the first folded letter sent with a tea sample. He loves Bai Mudan white tea from Fuding and believes good wrapping lets the tea remain the focus. His card always carries just a few honest lines: the place, the name and what he noticed in the cup. Pakli tells stories briefly and gently, never hiding weak tea behind a beautiful legend. He is happiest when someone replies with a tasting note of their own.
