PuErh Matcha Organic

Matcha Pu-erh Tea by Red Leaf Tea

Pure organic matcha made from green tea leaves,
Raw, organic, e Pu Erh Tea, Matcha-style powder .

Matcha is one of the most popular teas around. We love the Matcha style and wanted to recreate it with different flavors of teas. We have taken our fabulous loose-leaf Pu Erh Tea and stone ground it into a fine Matcha-style powder.

You may not be familiar with Pu Erh Tea. It is a Chinese specialty that involves rolling and drying tea leaves and then fermenting them. Pu Erh Tea is also known as Dark Tea because the tea leaves get darker as the fermentation process works. Pu Erh has much historical significance. Bricks of Pu Erh Tea were used as currency between nomadic tribes, but are now used just for drinking.

With a sweet and earthy taste, Pu Erh Matcha has mellow after-taste. Pu Erh tea powder, for some, is an acquired taste. Nonetheless, it is lovely and makes for an enjoyable morning or afternoon beverage.

Pu Erh Matcha has many health benefits tea drinkers will also enjoy. It contains calcium, folic acid and Vitamins B1, B2 and B6. Not only that, Pu Erh tea powder helps with:

Digestive problems Hangovers from the effects of alcohol Weight loss Increasing the metabolism Reducing cholesterol

I held off on trying this one until I was brave and since I was feeling squirrelly (Did you see my previous post? I’m giving away tea!) I thought I would belly-up to the matcha bar and try it today!

Pu-erh matcha. Ok. Here-goes!

The matcha powder looks just like cocoa-powder. It doesn’t have a heavy aroma like I thought it would which is fine. I only just one scoop of this powder for my first go around and really – I think that is all I needed!

Once I added water – it didn’t foam or bubble like other matchas but I’m not basing my opinions on that. The liquid is the darkest-of-dark, tho, much like a tar-black in color.

The aroma is a subtle pu-erh scent. Thankfully.

The taste is silky and velvety and very strong considering the amount (or lack there of) I added to the water or the water I added to the powder depending on which way you look at it – I guess.

But the actual TASTE is rather nice. I like this one much more than I anticipated! And chalk-full of B Vitamins, Calcium, and folic acid – that’s always a PLUS.

Nice!
