10 Year Pu-Erh

Pu-erh tea is an aged, fermented, bacteria laden, musky delight.  Doesn’t sound too appetizing eh?  Well, the bacteria is actually very beneficial to the body, the taste is earthy and nutty and the caffeine is lower than typical black tea.  The older and longer the Pu-erh tea cakes have been aging (in the right conditions of course), the better the tea tastes and the higher value it commands.  Pu-erh is purported to be one of the best natural cholesterol fighters on the market. This milder classic fermented tea is great for new Pu-erh drinkers because it lacks a lot of the heavy mustiness that is characteristic of some of the longer aged and more fermented cakes.
