2007 Sheng (Raw) Pu’er Aged Tea

This 13 year-old raw Pu’er tea is a post-fermented, aged tea produced in Dali, Yunnan Province, China from a respected tea factory.

Pu’er is well known for its many health benefits, which are said to include:

lowering blood pressure and preventing arteriosclerosis
reducing body fat
reducing internal heat
relieving fatigue and
aiding digestion

This last one is the reason that, amongst Chinese, it is regularly drunk before, with or after meals.

This tea brings classic Pu’er woody, earthy sensations that mellow with each infusion, resulting in extremely smooth notes of wet wood, tobacco and molasses with a thick mouthfeel.

Very moreish.
