A unique aged tea, Puerh is made from large leaf Yunnan tea and stored to age after oxidation. Puerh has long been valued for its medicinal benefits, with it being believed that it aids in digestion and reduces bad cholesterol levels; recent research appears to validate this belief. Puerh tea makes a dark, full-bodied brew, with an earthy taste, not unlike the best fish sauce. This tea will maintain its flavor through several infusions, and it is necessary to rinse the leaves for 45 seconds before the initial brewing. Our Palace Puerh is from 2012.
