This Pu Erh Imperial grade tea is now in its prime drinking window.

The only tea that improves with age, Pu Erh is now seen by many as an investment opportunity very much like wine.

This particular Imperial has a very uniform leaf with a good mix of Golden Tips, signifying its quality. It has a deep aroma, characteristically earthy, slightly smoky, and quite distinctive.

The liquor has a deep red colour and a pleasant earthy, woody, cup that is particularly smooth and fragrant.

When drunk with food, Pu Erh will enhance the digestion of lipid, or fat cells. It is widely drunk with food in China for this very reason.

When drunk regularly this type of tea is proven to reduce cholesterol, control weight and lower blood pressure.

We entertained guests for dinner last Saturday and one of the ladies agreed to try your imperial pu-erh tea after the meal. She hadn't tried pu-erh tea before. Her comment; 'it is better than wine".
Genuinely meant.

I have been drinking green tea for over ten years, but have only been drinking pu-erh tea since I first ordered it from your site a couple of months ago. To my amazement, in that time I have lost 3.5 kgs! I can't believe it!!!

Your customer service is wonderful, and so friendly, and the site is lovely. It's a pleasure to buy my tea from you.
