We've put together samples of our Ripe Pu'erh teas to give you a quick and easy introduction to this rich and earthy style of tea.

WHAT'S IN THE PACK?

Full Metal Ripe (2012)
Woody, Earthy, Herbal

A Ripe Pu'erh made from 2012 leaves from Menghai, pressed into thin cakes in 2018. Full flavoured and thick textured, it's like a warm hug in a mug.

Chocolat 2021
Herbal, Woody, Earthy

A relatively young ripe pu'erh made from leaves that were processed in 2021. The somewhat lighter flavour profile makes this a great everyday drinker and also serves as an excellent introduction to those unfamiliar with ripe pu'erh tea.

Tangerine Pu'erh
Citrus, earthy, woody

Ripe Pu’erh tea that’s been stuffed inside a dried tangerine peel. The citrus of the tangerine peel balances perfectly with the rich earthiness of the Ripe Pu’erh, making this a thick, warming yet also refreshingly fruity tea to drink.

STORAGE

Proper tea storage is super important. Improper storage leads to flat, flavourless and potentially weird tasting tea. So as a rule of thumb, keep your tea leaves in an airtight container (the less air inside the better) and away from heat, light, moisture and strong odours.
