Product Overview
Type: Pu-erh
Process: Cooked
Origin: China
Description: Ripe or shu pu'erh tea has uncommonly soft earthy flavor and woodsy tones. The tea leaves go through a natural fermentation process before the tea is gently dried. This creates a cup with zero astringency and a deep, rich body. Pu'erh is extraordinarily smooth and deeply refreshing.
Dried tangerine peel is known in Chinese as ‘Chenpi’ and is traditionally used to add flavour in Chinese cooking. This tea is a great choice for seasoned tea-lovers and tea connoisseurs. It is earthy, smooth and full-bodied highlighted by exceptionally light notes of citrus. The leaf has a sweet, honey-like aroma with citrussy undertones.
