Wholesale Bulk 9-Year Pu'er Raw Tea (357g Cake) $57.28

Origin of Pu'er Tea: Millennium Heritage of Yunnan Tea Mountains

Chinese Pu’er tea originated in Xishuangbanna, Pu’er and other places in Yunnan, and became famous for being sold to Tibetan areas via the “Ancient Tea-Horse Road” in ancient times. Its core craftsmanship originated in the Tang Dynasty and gradually matured in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, forming a unique system of “sun-drying, piling, and aging”. The raw Pu’er tea wholesaled on wholesale.prctea.com still uses traditional sun-drying technology to retain the natural activity of fresh leaves; the ripe tea undergoes artificial piling fermentation and has a mellow taste. Although modern fermentation technology can shorten the cycle, traditionally aged Pu’er has more collection value, which makes European tea collectors and American high-end tea shops willing to purchase in bulk for a long time. They believe that the aged aroma of old tea is a unique flavor given by time.

Pu'er Categories: Raw vs Ripe and Diverse Forms

Pu’er tea is mainly divided into raw and ripe types: raw tea is unfermented, with yellow-green soup and fresh taste; ripe tea is fermented by piling, with reddish-brown soup and soft taste. In addition to loose tea, there are also pressed forms such as cake tea, brick tea, and tuo tea, which are convenient for storage and transportation. According to different customer needs, wholesale.prctea.com supplies bulk 357g standard cake tea, 250g brick tea and other specifications. Although raw tea needs long-term aging to highlight its flavor, the characteristic of ripe tea being ready to drink immediately is more popular with American coffee shops—they often use ripe tea to make milk tea, while European customers prefer the freshness of raw tea. This category difference allows the platform’s Pu’er wholesale business to cover a wider market.

Health Value: Health Code of Aged Tea

Pu’er tea is rich in tea polysaccharides, tea polyphenols and probiotics, and the piling process of ripe tea also produces unique lipid-lowering components. European medical research shows that long-term drinking of ripe Pu’er tea can help regulate blood lipids, which is suitable for modern people. The Pu’er tea on wholesale.prctea.com has passed EU pesticide residue testing to ensure health and safety. Although Pu’er is more expensive than ordinary green tea, American health food supermarkets still purchase in large quantities—they list it as a “functional drink”, while European customers value its characteristic of “becoming more fragrant as it ages”, believing that collecting Pu’er is both consumption and investment. This dual value of health and collection promotes the continuous growth of Pu’er wholesale demand.
