Sheng Puer
Sheng Puer is a type of Chinese tea made from the leaves of the Camellia sinensis plant. It is a raw or unfermented tea, which means it undergoes minimal processing. The leaves are typically harvested, steamed, and then dried, allowing them to retain their natural flavors and health benefits. Sheng Puer can be enjoyed fresh or aged, with the aging process enhancing its complexity and taste.
The flavor profile of Sheng Puer can vary widely, ranging from floral and grassy to earthy and woody, depending on factors like the region of cultivation and the age of the tea. It is often compressed into cakes or bricks for storage and aging. Many tea enthusiasts appreciate Sheng Puer for its unique characteristics and potential health benefits, including antioxidant properties.
