Detox - Pu-Erh Tea 100 g - Café du Jour loose tea
5.75
Regular Price 6.46 Special Price 5.75
A loose-leaf pu-erh tea blended with dandelion root and turmeric, in a 100 g pack. Pu-erh is the dark, aged tea of Yunnan: deep and earthy, with very little of the astringency of a black tea. Dandelion root adds a bitter-sweet note closer to chicory than to tea, and turmeric a warm, faintly peppery edge. Brew it with water straight off the boil and drink it without milk.
Details
Pu-erh with dandelion root and turmeric
This is a pu-erh tea blend, sold as loose leaf in a 100 g pack. Pu-erh is the dark tea of Yunnan in China: the leaves are fermented and aged after processing, which is what separates it from a black tea. The cup comes out deep brown, thick in the mouth and earthy rather than sharp, and it forgives a minute of over-steeping in a way most black teas do not.
Dandelion root is the second note, earthy and bitter-sweet, closer in character to chicory than to tea. Turmeric sits underneath both of them, warm and faintly peppery. Together they make a heavy, savoury cup rather than a floral or fruity one, which is why it takes no milk and needs no sugar.
Brewing
Use water straight off the boil, hotter than you would pour on a green tea, with a heaped teaspoon per cup in an infuser or a paper filter. Three to five minutes is enough. The leaf will take a second steep, usually a little longer than the first, so there is no need to tip it out after one pour.
