Pu Erh is a variety of fermented tea that stems from the Yunnan province of China, and most commonly made from the large leaf (Assamica) variety of the Camellia Sinensis tea plant. There are two methods of brewing Pu Erh tea; the traditional Chinese method is more complex than the Western method, but creates a more authentic flavour experience.
About Our Pu Erh Teas:
There are two types of Pu Erh tea - ‘Raw’ Pu Erh and ‘Ripened’ Pu Erh. Raw Pu Erh is aged over time and goes through a slow oxidation process. It has a strong, earthy yet clean and smooth flavour, with a dark amber liquor when brewed and an aroma that is reminiscent of rich garden soil. Ripened Pu Erh undergoes a process that imitates the ageing process of raw Pu Erh. Like fine wines, a well-ages Pu Erh is a sought after and luxurious beverage.
This Pu erh tea from Yunnan, China is a testament to the meticulous aging process used by the experts. The tea imparts a rich and deep, earthy flavour.
