Gaia Premium Pu erh, Grade I, Dark Tea, 100 g

A robust and full-bodied health-promoting premium tea!

Les Jardins de Gaia Pu Erh Grade 1 Loose Tea.

Premium pu erh tea is obtained from ancient and precious tea bushes. An intensely full-bodied tea drink with a damp, earthy aroma and taste.

Tea processed in the same way as Pu erh wine:

Like green tea, pu erh is not oxidized at all. Unique to this tea is the fermentation process (lactic fermentation). The tea leaves are piled into mounds, covered, humidified and turned. The process lasts 60 days, after which the tea is matured like fine wine, for months or years. In China, pu erh teas are grouped by year and growing region, like wine. The best, most mature teas can cost thousands of dollars.

This high-quality Pu Ehr Grade 1 tea is fermented in a modern way, with an average fermentation period of three months. Modern fermentation is a good process that respects the tea leaves and allows for good flavour.
