Award Winning Green Teas at PeLi Tea

PeLi Teas has sent out a press release announcing that their prize winning teas from the 2008 World Tea Championship are now available at their website. They won first place in the Green Oolong, Green China Style and Green-Super teas categories. Their website displays the awards on the home page.

Not only did three of their teas win first place, four earned the highest numerical grading in their categories.

The press release notes that PeLi Teas purchases their teas directly from the growers in remote areas of China. Many of the tea gardens are in high mountain nature reserves and use traditional production methods.

I wish they would make it clear on their website which teas won what prizes. I also hope they re-do their site. It is unnecessary to have frames with the text on the page for each tea. The “story” and “recommendations” could all be on the same page with the “description” so that more tab clicking isn’t required to read about the tea. Furthermore, the addition of the “more” link within the frame to read the rest of the description is also unnecessary. Additionally, the several teas I checked on had no reviews which makes that tab a waste. A site revamp seems in order, but that is just my personal opinion.
