Raw Pu-erh Tea
In Yunnan Province, China, when people refer to Pu-erh tea, they mean Raw Pu-erh. Raw Pu-erh is made by withering, pan-frying and sun drying, and no microorganisms are involved in its processing. It is known for its floral and fruity flavors and its gentle taste, and it has an appeal that makes it hard to give up once you keep drinking it.
Pu-erh tea is categorized into "Raw" and "Ripe" types.
The tea with a brown color and unique flavor resembling dried mushrooms or dried fruits is the Ripe Pu-erh. In Japan, most of the tea referred to as Pu-erh is the Ripe type.
Ripe Pu-erh is made from Raw Pu-erh tea leaves, fermented by various microorganisms, primarily actinomycetes.
