Italian journalist Luigi Farrauto recently experienced the Pu'er tea pressing process in Pu'er, Yunnan province.

He pressed Pu'er tea cakes by stepping on tightly wrapped tea bundles placed under a stone, a crucial step in the traditional craftsmanship.

"I feel very excited to see the results of my work," Farrauto said. "It's a very particular experience."

Farrauto, along with other European bloggers, recently explored Kunming, Pu'er, and Xishuangbanna Dai autonomous prefecture, immersing themselves in the local cuisine, stunning landscapes, and distinct cultural heritage.
