Chunyun Ripe Pu-Erh Tea Cake 2013yr

This well-fermented ripe Pu-erh tea flavor is bold and earthy. Pu-Erh tea is digestive and reduces harmful cholesterol. It is equally satisfying whether drunk hot or iced.

Pu-Erh belongs to the category of fermented teas, usually called “dark“ tea or “black“ tea in China. It can be naturally fermented over time or by using a special pilling technique to accelerate the aging process. The two types are called raw and ripe Pu-Erh or sheng Pu-Erh and shou Pu-Erh. Both of them contain different beneficial fungi and bacteria and may offer many health benefits. However, they influence the flavor too. Ripe Pu-Erh is earthy, rich, fragrant, and never bitter. The flavor will depend on many factors – from the leaf material to aging conditions and the type of bacteria and fungi that will develop, to storage conditions and brewing methods.
