The history of Pu’er tea can be traced back to over one thousand years ago. And Menghai has been the most famous tea production area. This Pu’er tea is produced from 130-year-old ancient tea trees that have been nurtured by the peaceful valley. Ripe Pu’er is a typical type of fully fermented tea. It shows promising health benefits in decreasing blood sugar levels, promoting skin health, reducing anxiety and aiding weight loss. The natural components and flavours have also been well developed in this 2017 tea.

Many Pu’er teas are pressed into tea cakes through machinery to better support tea storage and transportation. The ones with higher quality are normally shaped through stones by hand. Our dragon balls are entirely handmade by local farmers to improve their preservation and quality.

This tea belongs to our Yìn 印 | TRACE collection.
