The earliest records of Puer tea date back to the Tang Dynasty (618AD-906AD ) when it was the favorite tea of the nobleman of this time. Puer tea over the centuries has been used as a form of currency in China and an important international trading item. Puer tea derives its name from the market town of Puer, where it was originally processed and sold. It is said that the unique taste of Puer Tea was developed because it took weeks to transport the tea leaves by horseback to the town to be processed. During this transportation period the tea leaves would begin to ferment in the humidity and release a strong, fragrant aroma, which people found quite pleasant. A special technique of tea fermenting developed and Puer was thus created. Welcome to WORLD FASHIONINTERNATIONAL GROUP INC amazon store for more available types of tea and tea brewing accessories!
