Shou Pu-Erh (Ripe)

Shou (熟) pu-erh tea is appreciated for its creamy, milky, slightly earthy taste. The tea owes its qualities to a maturing process in which the tea leaves are gently fermented over a period of 60 days. We offer a high-quality selection of traditionally pressed Shou pu-erh as well as loose leaf tea from the best terroirs of Yunnan.

High-quality Shou Pu Erh as loose leaf, unpressed tea. We offer two genre-defining Shou teas with an earthy-sweet, milky taste from an organic farm on Wuliang Mountain – the perfect introduction to the genre. Additionally, we have a high-quality organic Shou Pu Erh from Lincang, grown at altitudes above 1800m, exceptionally mild and natural in flavour. A speciality is the Lao Cha Tou, which consists of small naturally-formed tea nuggets from ancient trees (Gushu), particularly sweet and creamy in taste.

The Jingmai area with its hundreds of years old tea trees is one of the best terroirs for pu-erh in China. The teas are known for their sweet, floral aromas, which beautifully enhance and refine the peaty, earthy notes of our Shou pu-erh.

The Bulang Shan terroir, close to the border with Myanmar, with the famous Ban Zhang, can be counted among the "wildest" terroirs for pu-erh tea, both in terms of landscape and aroma. Our Shou pu-erh from here show great spiciness and aromatic complexity, ranging from classic earthy cocoa notes to more unusual fruit and pepper notes.

The region around Bangwei Shan is not far from the eponymous town of Pu Erh, so unlike other terroirs, it is not in the far south of Yunnan. Our Shou pu-erh comes from the Gushu forests, from trees over 100 years old. A wonderful upper-middle tea, with a thick, velvety consistency, earthy fermentation notes and spicy caramel.
