Although it is not known exactly when Toucha pods were first produced, they do have a long and rich history. Like tea bricks, Toucha tea pods are made by compressing steamed tea leaves into a form. Its compact shape, and the fact that as a variety of Pu-erh, Toucha generally improves with age meant that like tea bricks, the tea traveled exceptionally well and was even used as currency along the ancient spice caravan routes of China.
