About Puer Tea
Puer is an aged black tea from China prized for its
medicinal properties and earthy flavors. The production of Puer teas is a
state-guarded secret in China and until recently it was illegal to import it
into the United States. This rare and luxurious tea makes a very special brew.
Puer cakes and puer in general are said to have three
reasons for their acquisition. The first of course is the enjoyment of the tea,
second the health benefits, third, and for some the most important, the
investment potential. Puer became popular out side of the tradition markets of
Tibet and Mongolia, where for many years it was exchanged for horses, when it
became sought after in Hong Kong for it’s health benefits, and for it’s
mysterious quality of slow, natural fermentation, that causes it to improve with
age. During the Cultural Revolution a lot of the old cakes were destroyed
increasing the rareness of aged puer. In 1973 a process was invented to create
fermented puer in a short time, from 40 to 60 days. Now the popularity of puer
has spread out from Hong Kong and Guangzhou, to Taiwan, Beijing, and Shanghai
within China, and the popularity of puer has started to spread to the US and
Europe.
