Product Overview

Meridian Pu-Erh Tea is a classic Chinese tea delivered in a generous 125 gram package. Pu-Erh is known for its unique fermentation process that gives the tea its characteristic earthy flavour and deep aroma. Meridian, a well-established brand in health foods, has long focused on offering natural products of high quality with a clear connection to tradition and sustainability. Their philosophy is based on respect for the raw materials and careful production, which is evident in this Pu-Erh tea that comes directly from selected plantations in Yunnan Province, China. The packaging is practical, airtight, and preserves the tea's freshness and flavour, making it easy to enjoy a cup at any time of the day.

Active Ingredients & Science

Pu-Erh tea is rich in polyphenols, especially theaflavins and thearubigins, which develop during the unique fermentation. These compounds contribute to the tea's special character and flavour profile. The tea also contains caffeine in moderate amounts, providing a mild stimulating effect. Meridian ensures that the tea leaves are carefully fermented and stored to optimise the bioavailability of the natural components, making this tea a tasteful and natural option among healthy beverages.

Benefits & Uses

  • Suitable for those who want to unwind with a warm drink that has a deep and full-bodied flavour.
  • Perfect for the tea lover who appreciates traditional teas with a long history and special flavour nuances.
  • An excellent choice in the afternoon or evening to enjoy a cup without too strong caffeine content.
  • Can be used as part of a healthy lifestyle where natural, fermented products are included.
  • Suitable for those who want to discover and explore different teas with cultural background and craftsmanship tradition.

Usage & Dosage

To brew Pu-Erh tea, it is recommended to use about 3 grams of tea leaves per cup (approx. 250 ml). Let the leaves steep in hot water around 95 degrees Celsius for 3–5 minutes depending on desired strength. The tea can be brewed several times with the same leaves, with the flavour developing with each brew. Pu-Erh tea can be enjoyed on its own or with lighter meals. For the best experience, try combining with mild flavours and avoid strongly spiced dishes that may compete with the tea's character.

Meridian operates according to high quality standards and selects raw materials with great care. The Pu-Erh tea is carefully fermented and stored under controlled conditions to ensure flavour and quality. Production is carried out with respect for the environment and without unnecessary additives. The packaging is resealable and protects the tea from moisture and light, which extends shelf life. Meridian also conducts regular quality controls to guarantee that the product maintains a consistent and high standard.
