| Facts About Tea |
Pu-erh tea becomes alive during a miraculous process that facilitates the development of active yeast cultures. The two beneficial yeast, which create the unique character of Pu-erh tea are known as the yellow and white yeast types. When the temperature of the environment is higher (Spring & Summer), yellow yeast is in its most active state, and thrives. This is the reason why Pu-erh tea is called "after oxidized tea". At this time the tea cake is oxidizing. It is best to drink Pu-erh tea in this stage. When moisture content of the air is higher, the white yeast will become active. In this stage, the white yeast ferments the tea and you can smell the fragrance of aging of tea. Pu-erh tea would not be a Pu-erh tea if the cake did not consist of both yeast. However, the active period of both yeast may vary a little. Pu-erh tea has yin (cold) energy, and as the aging process proceeds, the energy will transfer to a more yang (warm) energy. Typically, Pu-erh teas that are younger than 3 years old are used in Chinese medicine to balance the Qi (energy) within people. Since Pu-erh tea is a living tea, it is proper to store it in a place that permits a flow of fresh air and provides a warm and humid environment. more info |
