Pu Erh Tea




Pu’Erh is a large leafed tea from the Yunnan province in China. It has been popular and used widely in the province as a medicinal tea.

According to the research study in the Tea Culture Exchange Centre, Pu'Erh Tea is very effective in:

1) Reducing high cholesterol and blood fat.
2) Good for reducing uric acid, recommendable for gout.
3) A Glass of Puerh tea each day enables a healthy gastro-intestinal tract
4) Good for those with excessive stomach gas and constipation

Besides, Puerh Tea can be kept for a long time, the older the better.

We have bought a few compressed cakes as in shown in the picture below during our Yunnan Trip for the above health reasons.
