Good things take time – as the old saying goes. When it comes to the production of Pu-Erh, patience is rewarded with diverse flavor notes. Our organic China Pu Erh Sheng Cha provides a unique insight into the complexity of Pu-Erh from its home in Yunnan, in southern China.

It was harvested in the spring of 2020. Freshly picked leaves are allowed to wither in the sun and are then briefly heated in a pan. This process stops the natural oxidation of the leaves, which is the differentiating step in black tea production. Subsequently, the still-moist leaves are rolled by experienced hands and sun-dried. The fermentation of the leaves, which occurs here in a completely natural way, is crucial for Pu-Erh. During fermentation, the leaves gradually change color, becoming darker over time. The initially very bitter taste increasingly transforms into gentle notes.

The result of this careful processing and aging is a voluminous, moss-green, twisted leaf, the scent of which is reminiscent of a wet autumn forest. The gentle, slightly woody and earthy aroma also carries through on the palate and is underscored by a grassy green tea note. Overall, this Pu-Erh offers an outstanding taste experience that clearly distinguishes itself from other classic tea varieties. Anyone looking to expand their tea repertoire and gain new experiences will find exactly what they are looking for with this rarity.
