Pu-erh tea buds are a special and unique tea. They are collected from wild growing tea trees in Yunnan Province. The bright liquor has a very faint colour and surprisingly complex flavours of light wood, earthiness, pine and hops with a long lasting soothing flowery sweetness. Pu-erh buds aged for several years are at first glance different in color, both dry buds and a brew. The green color changes to yellow over the years, the nettle freshness disappears and more of the typical tea flavor can be observed. The freshness remains even after years, but the taste is more balanced and less herbal. Tea is allowed to age not only for its taste, but mainly for its health qualities, which become even stronger with age. More

Pu-erh tea buds are a special and unique tea. They are collected from wild growing tea trees in Yunnan Province. Every spring, when young buds ripen on tea trees, Chinese pickers go to the local tropical forests behind the shoulders with large baskets. For hours, they collect young buds to dry them in the sun. Time window for the harvest is very short, just an experienced person can decide if the buds are ready. On the other hand, if you wait too long, you loose them. The buds are perfect only at a certain level of maturity and you have a few days only for plucking. Tea buds do not require further processing. This is probably the most natural of all known teas. The buds are plucked from the same tea tree from which tea leaves are collected for the production of Puer. That is why they are also referred to as “Puer Buds”.
