our pu erh collection

teanamu red tea collection - vintaged, earthy, nutritious, biscuity

These fermented, post-oxidised teas are outstanding, the jewel in the crown of the tea maker’s art. The most famous is vintaged Pu Erh. Stored in a warm, moisture-controlled environment to rest and age for months or even years, it darkens in colour and slowly matures, acquiring a mellow, beefy and toasty flavour.

As well as the loose-leaf form of Pu Erh, it may be formed into compressed discs or bricks, originally so that it could be carried by horse caravans that crossed the Himalayas. In village factories the compressed ‘cakes’ are still shaped under a series of stone weights, after being pressed flat and lightly steamed.

Chinese tea drinkers believe that Pu Erh lowers blood cholesterol and prevents bad cholesterol (LDL) from forming in the arteries. They drink Pu Erh after a heavy meal to aid with digestion and even stimulate weight loss.
