Organic Black Pu-erh, Whole Yunnan Leaf

A relatively new offering in the mainstream United States tea marketplace, pu-erh teas are made from fermented Yunnan black tea. After picking, the tea is piled and allowed to site for lengthy periods of time, allowing a true internal fermentation of the leaf to occur.

This process gives pu-erh its unique earthy overtones. This type of tea is cultivated in the world’s best tea growing areas, from tea bushes, some as tall as trees. Pu-erh has long been valued for its medicinal benefits, believed to aid in digestion and the reduction of cholesterol. Primarily packaged in compressed shapes of varying sizes, our Organic Black Pu-erh, Whole Yunnan Leaf is available in a convenient loose leaf form.
