Thé pu-erh chinois – Shou (pu-erh mûr)

The Shou Pu-erh Tea promotes weight loss, as some studies suggest that it helps synthesize new fats while burning the existing body fat. It also reduces cholesterol levels in the body and decreases fat accumulation—leading to boost liver health. Since there are antioxidants in the Shou Pu-erh Tea, it also inhibits cancer growth.

Mr. Min is a tea farmer and tea maker who promotes tea-making as a way of life. According to him, the beauty about making Shou Pu-erh Tea is that this type of tea is extremely flexible, and a lot of people are sure to enjoy this type of tea. Making different kinds of tea (with special mention to their specialty-- Shou Pu-erh Tea) is his family’s main form of livelihood. Mr. Min says, “the most critical part about making Shou Pu-erh Tea is to manipulate conditions to approximate the result of the aging process in a controlled environment.” This technique is called Wò Dūi, according to Mr. Min.

Shou Pu-erh Tea is farmed and harvested in Wan Lin Tea House at Fenqing County, Yunnan Province. This area is known for creating Shou Pu-erh Tea and Black Tea – teas they consider their local specialty. These are harvested between the months of March to May and fermented for several months before being available to the general public.
