Yunnan Pu-erh |
||
| Pu-erh
has been drunk in China since the Tang dynasty (A.D. 650-800). Because
of its large leaf, special growing conditions, longer leaf oxidation
and 'secret' storage requirements, Pu-erh has taken on a very different
taste. Earthy, old, mellow, even musty have all been used to describe
Pu-erh. We say rich and delicious. This is a large, bold leaf with
a full earthy flavor.
A dark, full-bodied brew that holds up very well to several infusions. Long valued for its cholesterol-reducing ability. Enjoy anytime, but especially after a meal. |

To
Prepare Yunnan Pu-erh is best when brewed with spring water at a temperature of 210° for 3 to 5 minutes. Use one rounded teaspoon per 6 ounces. You can expect this tea to sustain itself through many infusions. |
Tea Lovers Also Recommend If you enjoy the earthy flavor of Yunnan Pu-erh, you might also enjoy the the higher grade Pu-erh Superior or fragrant Pu-erh Jasmine. |
