Wirklich sehr besonderer, tiefer und sanfter Tee und für die Qualität auch sehr fairer Preis.

This tea is a classic from Ban Zhang, the most renowned area in the Menghai region, famed for its exceptional Pu-erh teas. This cake is crafted exclusively from hand-picked leaves and golden buds harvested from ancient trees over 300 years old, growing wild in the pristine forests of Bulang Shan. Unspoiled by pesticides, the mountain’s rich soil and unique microclimate provide ideal conditions for producing tea of extraordinary softness and character. Each leaf is carefully selected, air-dried, roasted, gently fermented, and steamed before being pressed into a perfectly balanced cake. The result is a tea that captures all the subtlety, complexity, and tradition of its legendary origins—a true treasure for any tea connoisseur.

Velvety, dark, sweet – why our Shou Pu‑erh is irresistible

Shou Pu‑erh is our “comfort tea”: dark, velvety, and surprisingly smooth—like a walk through the forest after rain, just in a cup. Instead of bitterness, you get a rounded, earthy warmth, a natural sweetness reminiscent of dates, cocoa, and brown sugar, and a texture that feels almost creamy.
Our Shou teas come directly from Yunnan, are cleanly fermented, and carefully selected to be easy to love and hard to put down: perfect as a deep morning cup or after a heavy meal. If you want to understand why Pu‑erh fans call it “liquid comfort,” this is where you begin.
