Pu'er Tea
Pu'er tea is a type of fermented tea that originates from the Yunnan province in China. It is named after the city of Pu'er, which used to be a major trading centre for tea. Pu'er tea is known for its unique ageing process, which can span from several months to many years. The tea leaves undergo microbial fermentation and oxidation, resulting in a distinct flavour and aroma.
Pu’er tea has been produced in Yunnan province for more than 2000 years, but due to its unique origin, history and process of production, it hasn’t spread to other areas until much later; hence it is sometimes referred to as “national treasure tea”. The unique features of this tea are its ageing ability and health benefits. Pu’er is well known for its mellowness, bitterness and sweetness. Other teas can be aged for a few years if taken good care of; however, Pu’er can be aged for decades with a remarkable effect on the caffeine content and polyphenol - antioxidant substances contained within it.
The Pu'er tea leaves are unique in the fact that you can enjoy over 10-20 'flushes' with the same leaves, enjoying more complex flavours and health benefits each time.
Explore the two captivating types of Pu'er tea:
-
Raw Pu'er: Delicately crafted through natural fermentation, Raw Pu'er preserves the raw essence of the tea leaves. This type of Pu'er tea develops complexity and depth over time, offering a captivating experience with every infusion.
-
Cooked/Ripe Pu'er: Undergoing a meticulous fermentation process, cooked or ripe Pu'er exhibits a rich, mellow flavour profile. This tea undergoes ageing to perfection, resulting in a smooth and velvety infusion that delights the palate.
Experience the allure of Pu'er tea as it takes you on a journey through time and terroir. Allow the ancient traditions and natural wonders of Pu'er to envelop your senses, and savour the remarkable depths of flavour that await in each cup.

Urban Chai is one of the most delightful and full bodied chai blends I've ever experienced. Thank you for such a divine creation Tea Journeys team 🙏🏻
This is the better alternative! Cleaner brew and an excellent blend.
It may be sacrilege but I mix this with English breakfast to make a great brew for outdoor activities- it is also good by itself!
This tea is so yummy. I drink it at night warm to help me sleep and during the day I enjoy it cold. The only ingredients are lemomgrass and ginger, no rubbish, fillers, colours nor flavours. Just naturally amazing.
The glass bottles are double walked and the sleeve is very protective. I am a return customer and am super impressed with all products as well as the teas which contain only quality ingredients . Highly recommend this company.
You guys are brilliant, your packaging is 1 of the main reason I chose to order my Tiger with you, you don't waste room and space with boxes. I love my tea samples and really I cannot survive without my Morning Tiger, Thankyou Tea Journeys
I’ve never understood our camping buddies not liking Lapsang Souchong. After all they all say how much they like getting home and finding all there clothes smell of smoke.
Recently introduced Golden Goose into the mix and it captured some interest. There is hope for them yet.
I am really enjoying my sticky chai….. especially the ginger flavour which gives me the taste I like to identify.
I often use my diffuser in a mug rather than the infusion bottle and that works well if I just want a mug of chai just for myself.
I have samples to try and I want to try a chilled chai as well. I’m on a ‘tea adventure’
Love you guys. They have always looked after me with delightful professionalism and care. I am not going to lie I have been difficult at times and have always gone beyond.
Thanks again
It is a little more effort, but pulling apart these delightful little cakes and drinking the tea makes me very happy. The smell and taste tickles me very much and the more steeps you do the more it breaks apart and keeps giving flavour. I may or may not have tested how many I could get away with.
Exactly what I was looking for. Fits my cups, of various diameters, perfectly. I use it everyday. Might need to get some more.
