Once a tribute tea for emperors, this fully fermented ripe Puerh is made purely of young buds for a silky, velvety texture.
Why we love it:
- It is the top grade of fully fermented ripe Puerh, made purely of young buds, which gives it a silky, velvety texture.
- As a fermented tea, it pairs well with heavy food like dim sum. It has also been shown to help improve blood sugar control and lower cholesterol levels.
- Because the tannins are broken down in the fermentation process, ripe Puerh is a very mellow tea with no bitterness or astringency.
- Most ripe Puerh is produced from the leftovers of raw Puerh production, but we source this from a family in Yunnan who are dedicated to perfecting ripe Puerh in its own right.
- It ages well - you can keep it for many years.
