Perfect Puer Tea!

puer tea

Puer tea is also called 'pu-erh tea', 'puerh tea' and 'pu-erh tea.' Pure Puer Tea is among the highest quality teas in the world. It is hand-picked from old and ancient large-leaf tea trees that grow high in the remote misty mountains of Yunnan, China. The earliest records of Pu’Er tea date back to the Tang Dynasty ( 618AD-906AD ) when it was the favorite tea of the aristocracy of this time. Pu’er tea over the centuries has been used as a form of currency in China, as medicine and as a valued international trading item.

The secret of making Pu’er tea has been closely guarded in China for centuries. The tea leaves are collected from growers of a special broad-leaf tea tree, which are said to be related to ancient prehistoric tea trees. The leaves go through two types of fermentation, which gives this tea its unique characteristics; a mild, but distinctively earthy flavour. Pu’er requires a minimum of 10 years to mature and gets only better with age. The Chinese believe that Pu-erh has even greater health properties than other teas.
