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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePu’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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: left;\" data-mce-style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cimg height=\"207\" width=\"310\" style=\"margin-bottom: 16px; float: none;\" alt=\"Yunnan Province\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0443\/1088\/8606\/files\/IMG_3524-lec_1024x1024.jpg?v=1685440888\" data-mce-style=\"margin-bottom: 16px; float: none;\" data-mce-src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0443\/1088\/8606\/files\/IMG_3524-lec_1024x1024.jpg?v=1685440888\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eExplore the two captivating types of Pu'er tea:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRaw Pu'er:\u003c\/strong\u003e Delicately crafted through natural fermentation, Raw Pu'er preserves the raw essence of the tea leaves.

The flavour of Bulang teas offers a larger initial bitter mouth feel - this comes from both the altitude in which the botanicals are grown, but also due to the provenance, age of the tea trees and the soil type. This “bitter” mouth feel gives way to an all encompassing sweet mouth feel that offers notes of fruit and unique umami flavours. Always with a great dark chocolate with this one!!
Ingredients: Pu’er Tea Origin: Bulang (China) Flavour Profile: Smoky, Slightly Sweet, Woody, Earthy Caffeine: Moderate Brewing Guide/ Directions of use: 3-5g, 90- 95°c, 5+ minutes We would recommend brewing for a longer time period, until you reach the flavour profile you like.
*Please keep in mind tea leaf and herbal characteristics can vary from batch to batch, due to sourcing availability and season of the crop.

Peppermint Tea at IPAC Wollongong – A Surprising Delight
I had a cup of peppermint tea at IPAC Wollongong in the late afternoon, just before a show. Since I had to drive home afterwards, I skipped the tempting bubbly drinks and went for something refreshing and light. The peppermint tea was the perfect choice.
Even though it came in a tea bag, the flavour was incredibly full and vibrant — far beyond what I expected. Curious, I checked the tea bag in the pot and was pleasantly surprised to see it packed with real peppermint leaves.
The cup truly refreshed me and lifted my mood. I felt more awake and relaxed, which made the evening even more enjoyable. A simple cup of peppermint tea turned out to be the perfect pre-show companion.
