Sheng (raw) Pu'er tea is made by naturally aging freshly picked tea leaves, a product of sun-dried tea that has not undergone the process of wet-piling fermentation. It is characterized by its bitterness that turns into a sweet aftertaste and its astringency that lingers, creating an endless charm. While much discussion often surrounds the benefits of ripe Pu'er tea, let's take a closer look at the wonders of raw Pu'er: 1. The Anti-Aging Secret of Beauties Sheng Pu'er tea shares many similarities with green tea, notably its antioxidant properties. In the minds of most people, antioxidants are synonymous with anti-aging. But what causes aging in the first place? It's all down to free radicals. The oxygen we inhale combines with fats and sugars in our bodies to produce energy, which fuels our daily activities. However, during this process, a small portion of oxygen transforms into free radicals, also known as oxidants. Remember from junior high chemistry that these can cause metals to rust? Imagine these free radicals running rampant through your body over time, causing it to "rust." Sheng Pu'er tea acts like a law enforcer, using its effective chemical components and various vitamins to neutralize these pesky free radicals.…

The differences between fresh and aged Pu'er tea: Fresh Pu'er tea refers to tea that is 1 to 5 years old, while aged tea refers to Pu'er tea stored for over 5 years. Fresh tea has a dark green color, while aged tea is yellowish-brown. Fresh tea has a fresh and brisk taste with a noticeable bitterness and astringency; its infusion color is yellowish-green, and the leaves at the bottom are fresh green. In contrast, aged tea has a mellow taste, rich aroma, weaker stimulation, an infusion color of orange-red, and leaf bottoms that are yellowish-brown. The Differences Between Fresh and Aged Pu'er Tea The differences lie in the following aspects: 1. Taste: The most significant difference between fresh and aged tea lies in the piling flavor. Freshly made tea, after the piling process, will have a strong piling odor, which is not very pleasant, similar to a seafood smell. After aging for two to three years, this piling odor gradually dissipates, transforming into the unique fresh and sweet fragrance of ripe tea. Freshly pressed tea will have a relatively heavy water flavor for about three to four months. The thickness and smoothness of new ripe tea infusions are not…

Summer is hot, and you need a cup of warm tea. Here are some recommendations on what teas to drink in summer, a common question among tea enthusiasts. 01Drink White Tea or Aged Tieguanyin to Prevent Heatstroke High temperatures make heatstroke more likely, especially for those who work or play outdoors. In such cases, white tea is highly recommended. White tea is minimally processed, undergoing only slight fermentation, and has a naturally cooling character. Rich in amino acids, it effectively reduces body heat and combats the effects of summer heat, helping prevent heatstroke. Aged Tieguanyin is another traditional remedy used by Fujian tea farmers to combat the heat. This traditional Tieguanyin, stored for five to ten years or more, undergoes full fermentation over time and contains components that help reduce the effects of heatstroke. 02 Drink Black Tea to Boost Energy and Nourish the Stomach In summer, people often feel lethargic and drowsy. The caffeine in black tea can stimulate the central nervous system, increasing blood circulation and metabolism, thus boosting energy levels and alleviating fatigue. During summer, we tend to consume cold foods and drinks to cool down. However, this can harm our delicate stomachs. Black tea is warm…

In the colorful world of tea culture, dark tea shines like a brilliant pearl, emitting a unique and captivating glow. Despite its long history, public knowledge about dark tea is relatively limited, and many people still understand it within the framework of their existing knowledge about green and black teas. However, each type of tea has its own distinct characteristics that cannot be generalized. The rich nutritional content of dark tea is due to a series of complex and exquisite processes and principles. Firstly, considering the timing of raw material collection, tea leaves are harvested in two seasons. Those collected around the Qingming Festival are called fine tea, while those gathered during summer and autumn are known as coarse tea. Unlike fine tea, coarse tea contains more abundant trace elements, vitamins, and polysaccharides. This is similar to eating an unripe sour apple versus a ripe one, where the components undergo a significant transformation from quantitative to qualitative changes. Dark tea uses such mature tea leaves as raw materials, laying the foundation for its rich nutritional content. Furthermore, the unique production process of dark tea is key to its rich nutrients. Taking Fu tea as an example, during the prolonged fermentation…

With rapid economic development and rising living standards in our country, the national fondness for sweets and sugary beverages has been on the rise [1]. Since the 1970s, high-fructose corn syrup (HFCS), due to its high sweetness, easy availability, and low cost, has gradually replaced sucrose to become one of the primary sweeteners in the food processing industry for products such as candies, cakes, and soft drinks [2]. Increasing evidence suggests that long-term consumption of high amounts of fructose can lead to visceral fat accumulation, dysregulation of sugar and lipid metabolism, oxidative stress, and chronic mild inflammation, becoming a risk factor for metabolic syndromes such as obesity, cardiovascular disease, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, and insulin resistance [3-4]. Therefore, finding safe and effective dietary approaches to prevent metabolic syndromes induced by high-fructose diets has become an urgent issue in the fields of food nutrition science and health. As a functional food and beverage with health-promoting properties, tea is widely consumed. Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), one of the most abundant polyphenolic components in green tea, has been shown to effectively alleviate metabolic disorders [5-6] and have anti-inflammatory effects [7-8]. This article, based on animal experiments, finds that EGCG can prevent metabolic disorders caused…

The term "fresh," composed of the characters for "fish" and "sheep," is one of the five basic tastes that is indispensable in our daily lives. When we drink tea, we often hear comments like "fresh and brisk," "fresh and mellow," or "fresh and fragrant." Especially for green tea, freshness is a crucial metric. Here, we will explore where this freshness comes from in a cup of tea. Freshness is Precious For green tea, freshness is a vital quality. Why do we rush to buy early-harvest green teas at premium prices? For the sake of freshness. Therefore, most tea enthusiasts would agree that a deliciously fresh brew is a sign of a good tea. Freshness is the jewel in the crown of teas, a true treasure.

The scorching summer days can be the most unbearable time of the year, causing inexplicable irritability. At such times, sipping on a cup of Pu'er ripe tea is a delightful indulgence. Some say that drinking green tea in summer helps to cool down the body, while red tea and Pu'er are more suitable for winter to promote health. So, is it appropriate to drink such a warming Pu'er ripe tea during the sweltering heat of summer? Some may directly place ripe Pu'er tea on the "blacklist" of summer beverages, but the truth is not so straightforward! Pu'er ripe tea, after undergoing pile fermentation, has a gentle nature and a smooth, mellow taste. Drinking ripe Pu'er tea in summer not only warms the body and dispels dampness but also quenches thirst, warms and protects the stomach, and promotes sleep. Who is Suitable to Drink Pu'er Ripe Tea in Summer? 1. Overweight Individuals In summer, overweight individuals are particularly suited to drink Pu'er ripe tea. The caffeine, vitamins, amino acids, phospholipids, and other components in Pu'er tea aid digestion and effectively inhibit the increase of abdominal fat.

Dampness is a concept in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). TCM divides dampness-related illnesses into external dampness and internal dampness. External dampness refers to the impact of environmental humidity on the human body, while internal dampness results from improper diet that harms digestive function, leading to accumulation of dampness and turbidity. Among the six pathogenic factors—wind, cold, heat, dampness, dryness, and fire—the one most feared is dampness. This is because dampness is the easiest to permeate. When dampness meets cold, it becomes cold-dampness. For example, winters in the south are more unbearable than those in the north due to the heavier humidity, which can penetrate clothing. When dampness meets heat, it becomes hot-dampness, similar to a summer sauna day, which is both hot and humid, making it hard to breathe. Nowadays, people eat more meat and exercise less, making them prone to excess dampness. What Are the Signs of Excess Dampness? In simple terms, individuals with high levels of internal dampness often feel lethargic, as if their bodies are not refreshed, always feeling sluggish, heavy in their limbs, cold hands and feet, and lacking appetite. Poor digestion, low energy, heavy limbs, skin rashes, and worsening freckles are the five most typical…

Puer tea is a natural free radical scavenger with notable effects in antioxidation, delaying aging, and preventing cardiovascular diseases. As the public brand "Xianyang Puer Tea" gains increasing recognition, the health benefits of Puer tea products are being taken more seriously by an ever-growing number of consumers. Recently, we have been sharing excerpts from "Speaking of Puer Tea," authored by Liu Xiang, Vice President of the Shaanxi Tea Circulation Association and member of the association's expert committee. The book, published by World Books Publishing and selected as one of the top ten tea books by the Tea Industry Media Alliance, delves into the health benefits of Puer tea, aiming to help consumers gain a more comprehensive understanding of it.

Among the over 300 theories or hypotheses explaining the mechanisms of aging, the free radical theory is the most prominent. The body waste produced within our bodies, known as free radicals, if not promptly cleared, can accumulate and cause various diseases, such as heart and brain vascular disease, stroke, darkened skin tone, age…

Raw and ripe Pu'er tea, which is better? It largely depends on your preference. If you plan for long-term storage, raw tea holds up better over time. In terms of taste, raw tea has a distinct bitterness that turns into a refreshing aftertaste, with a rich flavor. If you like this profile, choose raw tea. Ripe tea, on the other hand, has a sweet and mellow taste, without any bitterness, and is very palatable, emphasizing aroma, thickness, smoothness, and sweetness. From an efficacy standpoint, it depends on your constitution. If you have a hot constitution and tend to get overheated, then raw tea is a good choice. For those with a cooler constitution, ripe tea would be more suitable. Storage of Raw and Ripe Teas From a collector's perspective, raw Pu'er tea is generally considered better than ripe tea. Raw Pu'er tea is made by naturally aging the leaves without undergoing artificial fermentation. This means that raw Pu'er tea has a greater potential for transformation. After 20 years, the flavor and aroma of raw Pu'er tea can change dramatically, something that cannot be matched by ripe tea. In the tea world, there is an old saying: "Taste old tea, drink…

With people's lives becoming increasingly detached from natural environments, work and life pressures increasing, environmental pollution worsening, and the arrival of an aging society, human immunity is declining, leading to an increase in diseases related to immunity. The body's immune system and immune regulation are shown in Figure 1. Generally speaking, except for traumatic diseases, all human diseases are related to immune dysregulation (decreased or overactive). Figure 1 The Body's Immune System and Immune Regulation Anhua Dark Tea is one of the representative products among China's six major tea categories, specifically dark teas. It is made through a preliminary processing procedure involving spreading out, fixation, initial kneading, piling, re-kneading, and drying to produce crude dark tea, which is then refined into finished products. Due to differences in fresh leaf picking standards or crude tea production, as well as different processing techniques, Anhua Dark Tea mainly includes Fu Brick Tea, Flower Brick Tea, Dark Brick Tea, and Xiang Pointed Tea (including Sky Point, Tribute Point, and Raw Point). 1 Immunoregulatory Activity of Anhua Dark Tea During the Piling Processing Technique, polyphenol compounds in Anhua Dark Tea undergo a series of complex enzymatic and non-enzymatic oxidation reactions under the action of microorganisms,…

Pu'er ripened tea is made from Yunnan large-leaf sun-dried green tea as raw material and processed through a pile-fermentation process and other techniques. Pu'er ripened tea has a unique aged aroma, with its gentle nature providing health benefits such as nourishing the stomach, protecting the stomach, warming the stomach, lowering blood lipids, and aiding in weight loss. What should you pay attention to when selecting Pu'er ripened tea? What Should You Consider When Selecting Pu'er Ripened Tea? 1. Origin: Pu'er tea is a specialty of Yunnan Province, named after its distribution center, and has strong regional and distinctive characteristics. Therefore, the selected Pu'er ripened tea must be produced in Yunnan, specifically from the tea leaves grown south of 25° north latitude, west of Ailao Mountain, east of Nujiang River, and in the middle and lower reaches of Lancang River. This is the meaning of "a specific region" within the definition of Pu'er tea. The authenticity of teas named "Pu'er tea" but produced outside of Yunnan is questionable. 2. Variety: Pu'er tea is processed from the tea leaves of Yunnan large-leaf tea trees. Therefore, tea products processed from varieties other than Yunnan large-leaf tea trees do not belong to the category…
