Pu-erh tea

„The recently developed Wo Dui process (渥堆) pioneered by both the Menghai and Kunming Tea Factories has created a new type of pu-erh tea of which some traditionalists dispute the legitimacy. This process involves an accelerated fermentation into "ripe" Shou Cha (熟茶) which is then sold loose or pressed in various shapes.“

„All types or pu-erh can be stored for maturity before consumption and that is why it has become common for the products to be labelled with year and region of production.“
