Savoring the Experience:
Pu-erh is considered to have digestive benefits and is often served with a large stir-fry or a meat-based meal. For something a bit lighter, consider pairing it with Manchego cheese on some artisan-style bread.
Ingredients:
Aged Black Tea from Yunnan Province in China
- 1.5 tsp Per Cup
- 200°
- 2-3 Minutes
Fun Facts:
Our Pu-erh tea is loose-leaf, but Pu-erh is often presented in round, flat cakes. Originally, pressing tea leaves into flat cakes or “bricks” made the tea easier to transport either on ships or on the backs of horses. Their compressed shape was also more space efficient and easier to store during the aging process.
