APOfit Pu-erh loose tea is a type of tea produced in the southern Chinese province of Yunnan from leaves of the Assam variety of the tea plant Camellia sinensis var. assamica.
The tea leaves intended for the production of Pu-erh are pressed into moulds and dried after the initial processing steps. The pressed tea can be stored for years or even decades while it continues to mature.
The infusion produces a dark reddish-brown tea with an earthy, spicy flavour. Pressed tea is known in various tea-growing regions of the world, but only the tea produced in the region around the former tea trading town in Yunnan has been allowed to bear the protected trade name Pu-Erh since 2008. It is said to have a positive effect on many areas of the body.
