Pu-erh tea, pronounced “poo-air, comes from deep within the mountains of the Yunnan Province in China and made from the leaf and buds of tea trees that are located in vast ancient forests. This tea dates back to the Tang dynasty (618-907) and was commonly traded for horses. Pu-erh teas are aged and naturally fermented, sometimes for 50 years or more and stored in compressed bricks or tea cakes. However, lucky for you, Pu-erh tea is also available in a loose leaf. One of the most oxidized of all teas, it only gets better with time. Every 8-ounce cup of Pu-erh tea contains about 70 milligrams of caffeine. Pu-erh tea not only increases energy with all of this caffeine, but it also helps produce lovastatin (used to treat high cholesterol), delivers increased levels of oxygen, and provides high levels of antioxidants and vitamin C due to its fermentation.
