Buy Yunnan Pu-Erh Tea: Discover the world of aged tea at Arteamony
If you want to buy genuine Pu-Erh tea, choose a product with a unique history. Pu-Erh is not just a tea, but a legally protected product: only tea that comes from the Yunnan province in China and is fermented there using traditional methods is allowed to bear this name. This guarantees the authenticity that is so important for this special tea.
Pu-Erh is fundamentally different from all other types of tea because it is a “living” product. It develops its flavor and quality over time, similar to a good wine.
You can find genuine Yunnan Pu-Erh tea directly at Arteamony. This unique tea is grown exclusively in the Yunnan province of China, which supplies the basis for our entire Pu-Erh tea stock. The Yunnan province is known for its ancient tea trees and rich tradition of cultivation.
Discover the diversity and deep aromas that only genuine Pu-Erh can offer. Those who want to buy Pu-Erh tea are looking for more than just a drink—they are looking for an experience. We recommend that you familiarize yourself with the special features before purchasing so that you can recognize genuine Pu-Erh tea.
The art of aging: Why Yunnan Pu-Erh gets better with age
The key to the magic of Yunnan Pu-Erh lies in its unique fermentation and subsequent aging. Unlike green or black tea, whose aroma is largely fixed after processing, Pu-Erh changes over time. This is referred to as post-fermentation, which is driven by microorganisms.
In the Yunnan region, there are two main styles of aging, which result in completely different flavor profiles:
- The raw style (Sheng). It ages slowly and naturally over many years. The flavor starts out soft and slightly floral, changing over time into deep, complex, woody notes.
- The ripe style (Shou). Here, fermentation is accelerated by targeted, moist storage. This Pu-Erh quickly develops deep, dark notes that are often described as earthy and have a special mildness.
These processes give the tea its distinctive flavor. As the maturation process progresses, the teas lose their initial sharpness; the bitterness gives way to a soft, velvety texture. New aromas of wood, dried fruit, and damp forest emerge, making it a fascinating experience to enjoy.
This is why the age and quality of fermentation are so crucial for Yunnan Pu-Erh tea. We also offer premium Shou Pu-Erh from the best vintages.

Tips for preparation and enjoyment
The correct preparation of Pu-Erh differs fundamentally from the preparation of other types of tea and is crucial for the full flavor. The most important element is the mandatory washing of the tea. This removes dust and awakens the leaf material, which is essential for the full aroma to develop.
How to prepare your Pu-Erh optimally:
- Water temperature. Always use freshly boiled, bubbling water (212°F), as Pu-Erh requires a high temperature to release its aromas.
- Rinsing. Pour hot water over the pu-erh (whether pressed or loose) and immediately pour off the first infusion. This process serves to cleanse and “awaken” the leaves.
- Method. Use the Gongfu Cha method. This is the best way to experience the tea's complex aromas over many infusions.
- Enjoy. The steeping time is only 5 to 20 seconds per infusion. This allows you to experience the pure enjoyment of this unique tea.
