Natural Puerh Bulang highmountain tea garden co.,ltd. located in the southwestern of Yunnan province: Pu-erh city, which is commended as “Tea- city of China”,” The origin of the tea world” and ”The capital of pu’er”. This is such a place where the Dai people populated in with quite rich tea culture. The average elevation of it is about 1300 meters and Asian Corridor in Heaven had crosses the whole land of it.
We have self-owned organic tea garden of 166 hectares which were reclaimed from secondary forest in 1998, there were no any planting history but clear and fertile land.We insist in rigid organic planting and management since reclaimed without any chemical pesticides and fertilizers.

Pu-erh tea is called "an antique that can be drunk". It is a unique tea that is more and more mellow. "Can drink, can be hidden" is the dual characteristics of Pu-erh tea. Many people have such questions. What kind of Pu-erh tea has the value of collection. Is all Pu-erh tea worth collecting?
Pu-erh tea is a "living organism". After the completion of the tea body, the "post-fermentation" (or aging, post-ripening) is continued. As long as it is fermented in a suitable environment, the active ingredients in the tea will continue to be The air is in contact with oxidation, and the oxidation process can inhibit the production of bacteria. Not only will it not deteriorate, but the longer the time is, the more mellow the mouth feel is. The flavors of Pu-erh teas in different ages and different storage locations are not the same.

In the history, Pu-erh tea refers to the collective name of various Yunnan teas, which are processed by the “traditional craftsmanship” of Yunnan big-leaf species, and are commonly known as “sheng Pu-erh”. Of course, the concept of "sheng Pu-erh" is also inaccurate. The use of "sheng Pu-erh" is only to distinguish and respond to the modern Pu-erh tea made by adopting the "Piling heap" process. It is easy to misunderstand people with "sheng Pu-erh". I thought that "raw tea" can't be drunk, and cooked tea can drink.

“Shengpu” is not a raw drink, especially the traditional craft Pu-erh tea. The traditional name used in the past is “Yuqing Tea” or “Yunnan Green Tea”, and the oldest name is “Pucha”, which is Traditional craft Pu-erh tea. Many such teas have been produced in Yunnan history, not only in Yunnan folks, but also in Tibetan areas and at home and abroad. The remaining amount of old tea is scarce and worthwhile.
The tea source of Pu-erh tea is the guarantee of tea quality. If the quality is not well grasped, it is very easy to have problems. However, not everyone understands this truth. The saying that "the Pu-erh tea is better and better" is not completely accurate. The pros and cons of Pu-erh tea are a standard, but you can't simply think that the longer the year, the better. After all, the inventory is not many years ago. More, so it is easy to be deceived only after pursuing years.
“Only Yunnan ancient tree tea, large leaf species, sun-green green tea, and refined products such as Pu-erh tea after manual finishing or autoclaving are valuable for collection. There is also a point that Pu-erh tea is the same as wine. It doesn't make much sense to collect the congenital quality.
Pu-erh tea is "drinkable, can be hidden" is the dual characteristics of Pu-erh tea. "The price is more expensive than gold" is the benefit of time, an invisible asset, and an insurance investment. In addition, the collection value of Pu-erh tea is much more important than its age.
The best Pu-erh tea raw material should be tea that has not been sprayed with pesticides grown in the natural state. This kind of tea looks rough and does not sell well, but it is a really green and natural tea. In terms of origin, Yunnan Xishuangbanna and Lincang have relatively long-term tea planting history and superior natural conditions, and the quality is relatively superior.
Today, a Pu-erh old tea has no fixed price because it is “adding value every day”
Pu-erh tea is good or not. There is collection value or not? It can't be seen through eyes and nose. After all, this is something that is drunk in the mouth. It should be brewed before conclusion.
The tea soup of Pu-erh tea should be clear:
For Pu-erh tea, the new raw tea has a golden color; the longer the green cake is, the closer it will be to the red color. The old tea of ​​about ten years is a bright red and a longer vintage. The chestnut red will appear; the cooked tea will appear red and white, both old and new. The tea soup stored in the dry warehouse is clear and translucent. If the tea soup is turbid, it may be a wet warehouse or it may be stored in a relatively humid environment.

The aroma of Pu-erh tea should be pure:
A good Pu-erh aroma should be pure and not boring. Pure means aroma. It smells with your nose and tastes your mouth. It doesn't have any strange or irritating smell, but a pure tea fragrance. For example: musk, plum, fragrant, jujube, lotus and so on.

The storage of Pu-erh tea is positive:
It refers to the storage warehouse environment. If it is not a dry warehouse, or there is an odor in or near the warehouse, it will be sucked in by the tea, and it will be displayed from the tea flavor when brewing. Of course, whether tea is an authentic dry position depends on whether there is any mildew in the tea itself.
Pu-erh tea has a strong tea:
Tea is the rich taste of tea. The stronger the taste of the tea, the longer the fragrance in the mouth, indicating that the tea is more full. This is the easiest to feel but the most abstract. Only when you try tea well will you feel it. Tea with a full amount of tea has a high potential for Tibetan tea.
There are various ways to identify Pu-erh, but they are inseparable from the four basic qualities: clear, pure, positive, and gas. Those with these four qualities are good tea, and those that do not have defects. For tea lovers who want to collect Pu-erh tea, Pu-erh tea has only the above characteristics and is worthy of buying and collecting.
