This is a nice loose leaf ripe pu-erh tea that is sweet, fruity, and smooth. In later steeps it becomes kind of creamy. It takes about 6-8 steeps gong fu style (possibly more if you push it) and without any wet pile taste. An excellent budget ripe pu-erh tea that is an enjoyable daily drinker.

Menghai Pu'er tea is one of the most prominent representatives of Yunnan Pu'er tea. It originates from Menghai County in the Xishuangbanna region of Yunnan Province. Often referred to as the "golden region" for Pu'er tea, Menghai boasts a unique geographical location and natural environment, situated at the crossroads of tropical and subtropical climates. These conditions create an ideal setting for tea trees to thrive.

Actual colors of the tea may vary somewhat from pictured. Purchase the smallest amount to try before purchasing larger amounts.

Effects and functions of drinking Pu-erh tea

1. Aid digestion and relieve greasiness
Pu-erh tea contains rich tea polyphenols and caffeine, which can stimulate gastric juice secretion and help digestion. In addition, its degreasing properties make it an ideal tea to pair with greasy food, helping to relieve stomach discomfort.

2. Assist in reducing fat and losing weight
The active ingredients in Pu-erh tea can promote fat metabolism. Long-term drinking has a certain effect on lowering cholesterol and triglycerides in the body, so it is favored by many people who want to lose weight.

3. Assist in lowering blood sugar and blood lipids
The tea polysaccharides and fermentation products in Pu-erh tea have a certain effect on regulating blood sugar and lowering blood lipids. It is especially suitable for diabetic patients and people with high blood lipids to drink in moderation.

4. Assist in anti-oxidation and anti-aging
Pu-erh tea contains rich antioxidants, such as tea polyphenols, vitamin C, etc., which can effectively remove free radicals, delay aging, and improve immunity.

5. Assist in antibacterial and anti-inflammatory
The fermentation process of Pu-erh tea produces a large number of beneficial microorganisms. These substances have a certain inhibitory effect on gastrointestinal bacteria, which helps to improve gastrointestinal health and relieve mild inflammation.

6. Helps refresh the mind
The caffeine in Pu-erh tea can stimulate the central nervous system, help improve concentration and relieve fatigue, but the stimulation to the nerves is relatively mild and is not likely to cause palpitations.

7. Helps maintain health and nourish the stomach
Fermented Pu-erh tea is warm in nature, less irritating, and does not hurt the stomach. Moderate drinking has a protective effect on the stomach, especially ripe Pu-erh, which is more suitable for people with weak stomachs.

Important Note:
While tea offers numerous health benefits, it should not replace medications for treating diseases. It is also important to consume it in moderation, as drinking too much strong tea can cause side effects like insomnia or gastrointestinal discomfort. Pregnant women, breastfeeding mothers, and individuals with insomnia should consult a doctor and drink the tea cautiously based on their specific conditions.

Excellent smooth ripe. Like other reviewers pointed out... expected less, got more! Good value.

I bought this puer seduced by the price and the reviews. It is okay for the price, but not as good as other reviewers say. There is no complexity to the taste, just very plain tea. I tried to brew it in a cup and in a yixing teapot. For me it's not worth the hassle of pin cha, but it's good enough to brew it in a cup, when I don't have much time, to have a little concentration boost while I'm working. It's much lighter than puer cakes, I even drank it in the evening without having any sleep issues afterwards. But I don't like it in the morning.

When you consider the price of this pu-ehr, it is an absolute steal. Nice and smooth, and surprisingly complex for the price point like all previous reviews say. This particular tea doesn't have a strong nose to it, but is just an all around satisfying ripe.

Very nice ripe tea. I wasn't expecting much due to the very low price, but I was pleasantly surprised by it's complexity and smoothness.

This "everyday" tea measures up very well against many of the more costly ripe Pu'ers from the same region. Leaf size might be one factor, but you would have to be tasting it very carefully to notice the difference. This tea has a full, rich flavor. I brew it in a small ceramic teapot with a large mesh basket that lets the leaves spread out and expand. Typically use 5 grams of dry leaf, though sometimes I do it by eye. This is the kind of tea that will still brew up well if you aren't precise. I call it a "forgiving" tea. Use water at a full boil, and quickly rinse the dry leaves to remove the dust and "wake them up." Throw that water away. Then refill the teapot and let it steep until it looks right, a minute or so. Let it steep longer on the 3rd and 4th steeps. I often buy an extra bag of this tea to give to my brother, who appreciates a robust cup of tea but is not a true connoisseur. He appreciates how easy it is to brew well and how pleasing and consistent the results are. Some days I even add a few rose buds that I brought over from China. They add a faint rose flavor and aroma.
