Pu’er Or Pu-erh Teas
Pu-erh (or Pu’er) tea is a unique Chinese tea produces from a very ancient, broad-leafed variety of the tea plant Camellia sinensis. The tea is grown in the mountainous Yunnan province and produced by a unique traditional method that involves aging and curing for much longer than any other tea, resulting in a unique flavor profile.
Although all Pu’er begins as raw green tea leaves (called sheng), it is oxidized and cured to a red or brown hue in one of two ways. The traditional way involves aging the tea, which has been condensed into small or large flat discs or cakes, for long periods of time. Pu’ers are kept for two, ten, or even up to fifty years as they very slowly and gracefully take on complex flavors and aromas that range from sweet to woodsy. Rare versions of this kind of Pu’er can be very expensive and are highly sought by tea connoisseurs and collectors.
The second, more modern, method tries to duplicate this process by carefully cooking the Pu’er (or shu) to get that prized flavor profile much more rapidly. Although excellent examples of this kind of cooked Pu’er exist, in general they do not obtain the same nuance and complexity of the old-fashioned type.
Pu-erh tea dates back to the Han dynasty of the third century B.C. The best teas of the harvest each year were pressed into precious caked, wrapped in silk, and presented to the royalty as gifts. Local governors, upon receiving these tributes, would send them by horseback on long journeys to the royal court. The legend has it that the tea was found to improve in taste during the long voyages to the emperor, often of a year or more.
Making Pu’er tea is much like making regular loose-leaf tea. Break off the amount of tea you need from the cake of Pu’er, and then break up the layers of tea so that they all get some exposure to the water and brew as usual. Pu’er teas can be re-used for multiple pots particularly well, especially if the leaves are re-used before they are allowed to dry out. As the pungent flavors of Pu’er can be strange and unusual at first, try different steeping times to regulate the strength of the tea. Pu’ers also have all of the health benefits of other teas, such as high levels of antioxidants, and can be enjoyed for their medicinal properties as well as their delicious flavors.
Add style to your tea time with a japanese tea set, kyusu, or cast iron teapot.
