Pu-erh tea buds are a special and unique tea. They are collected from wild growing tea trees in Yunnan Province. Every spring, when young buds ripen on tea trees, Chinese pickers go to the local tropical forests behind the shoulders with large baskets. For hours, they collect young buds to dry them in the sun. Time window for the harvest is very short, just an experienced person can decide if the buds are ready. On the other hand, if you wait too long, you loose them. The buds are perfect only at a certain level of maturity and you have a few days only for plucking. Tea buds do not require further processing. This is probably the most natural of all known teas. The buds are plucked from the same tea tree from which tea leaves are collected for the production of Puer. That is why they are also referred to as “Puer Buds”. The bright liquor has a very faint colour and surprisingly complex flavours of light wood, earthiness, pine and hops with a long lasting soothing flowery sweetness.
