Description

Shu Pu’erh Tea is a type of fermented tea grown and produced in the mountains of the Yunnan province, China. It is known for its unique production process and health benefits. Unlike most camellia sinensis, Shu Pu’erh Tea is typically grown wild and the trees can be several hundred years old. We carry loose Shu Pu’erh Tea. The leaves are processed similarly to green tea but undergo a natural aging process, which can last several years. Shu Pu’erh Tea typically starts with a strong, astringent taste that mellows over time, becoming smoother and more complex. Some of the most prized Shu Pu’erh Tea can be aged for decades. As a result, the older teas are often very valuable. Raw loose leaf Shu Pu-erh Tea has a sweet earthy taste.
