Imperial Royal Puerh 宮廷普洱

This puerh tea has been picked from tea trees in Bulang Mountain Yunnan. Ripe puerh goes through an accelerated aging process called wet pilling. This process offers an alternative to having to wait ten to thirty years for the raw puerh to mature and achieve the aged flavor. Puerh is often considered the best tea after a heavy oily meal. Our Imperial Royal Puerh is made of high quality tea leaves, which gives you a mellow and smooth aftertaste.

About

Imperial Royal Puerh | 宮廷普洱

This puerh tea has been picked from tea trees in Bulang Mountain, Yunnan. Unlike raw puerh, ripe puerh goes through an accelerated aging process called wet pilling. Loose tea leaves are piled and sprayed with water then left to ferment in a hot and humid environment for months. This process offers an alternative to having to wait ten to thirty years for the raw puerh to mature and achieve the aged flavor. Our Imperial Royal Puerh is made of high quality tea leaves, which gives you a mellow and smooth aftertaste.
 
Puerh tea is effective in reducing body weight. It contains theabrownin which is responsible for cholesterol reducing effects and has strong anti-oxidative properties and fat lowering effects, which can reduce cholesterol and heart related risks [1,2,3,4]. The fat reducing effect was stronger for ripe puerh relative to raw puerh [5]. Pu’erh is often considered the best tea after a heavy oily meal, it has the potential of treating constipation as well [6].
 
我們的宮廷普洱採自中國雲南布朗山。與生普洱不同的是,熟普洱經過一個加速了的陳化過程,稱為渥堆,由昆明茶廠於1972年首次開發。渥堆是將散茶堆積起來,然後灑水,在濕熱的環境中發酵數月。這個過程促進茶葉酵素作用,令茶葉快速成熟,達到陳年的味道,相比起生普洱,需要等待10到30年才能成熟。我們的經典雲南熟普洱是由高品質的茶葉製成,給你帶來醇厚利落的風味。
 
普洱茶能有效減輕體重。它含有負責降低膽固醇的茶褐素,具有很強的抗氧化性和降脂作用,可以降低膽固醇和心臟相關的風險[1,2,3,4]。相對於生普洱,熟普洱的降脂作用較爲高[5]。普洱茶通常被認為是重油餐後最好的茶,有疏通便秘的效用[6]
