Centuries ago the Chinese pressed dust from tea into bricks to use as tea money for trading with Mongolia and Tibet.
Someone gave it to me a few years ago and I am sure it isn't fresh any more.
It's so lovely and I think about her every time I open the cupboard. I don't want to throw it out.
I made some rubbings from it.
