Pu’er tea is a famous type of Chinese tea. It is made with sun-dried Shaiqinmao tea leaves (Yunnan big-leaf variety). 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’erh is well known for the mellowness, bitterness and sweetness brought by ageing. Other teas can be aged for a few years if taken good care of; however Pu’erh can be aged for decades with a remarkable effect on the caffeine content and polyphenol - antioxidant substances contained within it.

Mastering the Art of Tea Brewing: Three Essential Triumphs
Water Temperature: Heating water to the correct temperature for the type of tea you're brewing ensures optimal flavour extraction without scalding the leaves. (Refer to product page)
Steeping Time: Allowing the tea leaves to steep for the appropriate duration ensures the right balance of flavours and avoids bitterness or a weak taste.
Proportion: Using the right amount of tea leaves relative to the amount of water ensures that the flavorus are neither too strong nor too weak, providing a well-balanced cup of tea.
Best Practices for Storing Tea
Store your tea in an airtight container in a cool, dark place away from moisture and odours. Avoid refrigeration to maintain freshness and flavour.
Our warehouse is located in South Nowra and pick-up can be arranged between 9 AM - 2:30 PM between Monday-Friday. Please call 1800 355 182 or email info@teajourneys.com.au to arrange prior to coming in.
How long does your tea stay fresh?
Short answer. It depends on the tea and how it is stored. To keep your teas fresh, always store them well-sealed in a cool, dry, and dark place and generally as a guideline we recommend consuming within 3 years of purchase.
How much caffeine is there in a cup of tea?
There are many things that affect the caffeine content of your cup of tea including water temperature and steeping time. However, can guarantee that our herbal teas are caffeine-free.
