Pu’er is a type of fermented dark tea produced in Yunnan province, famous worldwide for its complexity in taste and health benefits. Some of Pu’er’s benefits include the removal of toxins from the body, curing dysentery, promoting blood circulation and reviving those who have over-indulged in alcohol. Studies have shown that Pu’er tea has an effect of increasing of HDL-C (good cholesterol) and a decreasing in LDL-C (bad cholesterol), and this mature tea is even used as a medicine in some countries. Yet, its taste is much unlike bitter medicine, and instead likened to a deep breath of fresh air in a springtime pine forest after a heavy rain.
This big leafed variant of the Pu’er tea is aged for 28 years to develop a matured, aged fragrance and a smooth, earthy taste. A must try for new Pu’er drinkers.
