Pu-erh Tea

Unique to China, Pu-erh teas are known as " Chinese Penicillin". Pu-erh is grown and picked throughout the year, unlike other teas that require a dormant season. Although dark Pu-erh tastes much like black tea, it falls into a category of its own. These teas are not allowed to dry completely. They are "composted", allowing "friendly bacteria" to grow. The tea is then aged, in special underground rooms or caves, adding to its unique character. These aged teas are prized and can be found in vintages, like wine, some dating back 40 to 50 or even 100 years!
