Imperial Pu-Erh Red Tea

Características

Red tea and Pu-erh tea are two different types of tea. Although both are fermented teas, Pu-erh tea is a specific type of red tea produced in Yunnan Province, China and hand-picked from a specific variety (Assamic Camellia).

The imperial myth of longevity

Sus propiedades súper antioxidantes, y su delicado aroma y sabor, dotan a este té de la categoría de producto “premium”, como si éste fuera “la trufa de los tés”. El té rojo, por otro lado, es un término general que se refiere a cualquier té que ha sido fermentado y oxidado.

Does red tea = longevity? This is what the Qianlong emperors of the Qing dynasty of China and Wilhelm I of Germany believed.

Pu-erh tea undergoes a fermentation process that can last several years, giving it an earthy and smooth flavor. On the other hand, red tea (which still has high antioxidant properties) is completely oxidized and has a stronger, more bitter flavor.
