Origin

Yunnan, China Home to Puer teas, Yunnan is credited as the birthplace of tea and known for its ethnic diversity, festivals and mountainous landscape.

Puer Tea

Originating more than 1,700 years ago in the small village of Puer in Southern Yunnan, Puer teas are known for their earthy flavor profiles, ability to age, and processing shapes (round cakes, bricks and small bowls).

Wo Dui

To reach its destination, the tea traveled though a range of climates and weather often by horse and camelback. For this reason, Puer became known for an aged, earthy quality that developed along the way. Nowadays, this earthy character can be encouraged by a 'Wo Dui' process.

Puer tea leaves are moistened ('wo') with water and stacked ('dui') in piles to undergo a unique post fermentation giving the tea a dark, inky color and rich, smooth flavor.

Flavor

Deep, earthy flavor, dark red-gold color and a rich, velvety texture. Woody, earthy, vegetal aroma like an old growth forest.

The Tao of Tea

Like the Tao, the art of tea is universal. We began our work serving as a connecting thread for tea culture in 1997. Practicing this art on a daily basis in our teahouses in Portland, Oregon, we are a group of tea enthusiasts from different backgrounds and cultures. We travel, learn, take delight, and seek to offer pure leaf teas with great flavor, artistry and soul.
