A Tea Lover’s Guide to Raw vs. Ripe Pu-erh

Pu’er tea is a unique variety of tea originating from Yunnan, China. It’s made from large-leaf tea plants grown within a protected geographical area, using specific traditional processing methods. Pu’er tea is renowned for its distinctive qualities and comes in two main types: raw (sheng in Chinese) and ripe (shou in Chinese).

It’s worth noting that the term ‘cooked Pu-erh’ is not accurate and is rarely used by tea experts or enthusiasts. If you meet someone or read somewhere using this term, they may be new to Pu-erh tea or might have received misinformation.

Raw and ripe Pu’er teas differ significantly in their production processes, flavors, and health benefits. Let’s explore these two types and consider which might be better suited for you to drink.
