Puerh Tea Bricks

Puerh Tea Bricks are an expression of Yunnan, China tea making. They come from harvested loose leaf tea pressed into brick format for taste preservation and storage. Puerh Tea Bricks are largely from old arbor, large leaf varieties found in southern Yunnan, particularly from the Xishuangbanna area.

The Daizu people are some of the most well-known makers of tea brick making within Xishuangbanna. They use traditional hand pressed methods instead of machines, which has increasingly become the norm in other regions. The end result is a more natural tasting product that captures local taste and nutrient quality.
