One of the most sought-after teas in the world, Puerh is a variety of Camellia sinensis from broad-leafed Assam tea trees. These trees flourish in warm, humid climates, and are grown and cultivated at altitudes of over 5,000 feet. After being harvested, Puerh is fermented and allowed to age in order to develop its complex flavor profile. The aroma of Puerh is piney and resinous, while the first sip is vegetal, woody, and earthy.
