i have been reading a book on tea, and i thought i understood pu-erh.

i thought for ripe they fermented and cooked the tea, then made cakes
over a couple days. this ripe tea desciption below shows it was at
least 10 months from picking to being pressed into cakes. i thought
the fermentation was a couple days only.

thx for helping a newbie,

2007 Yong De * Certified Organic Ripe Pu-erh tea * 357 grams

The 2006 version of this tea from the Yong De Zi Yu tea factory has
become one of my favorite teas. I would offer it to my dear
customers, but I am keeping it for myself. That being said, I am
excited to offer the 2007 version of this tea, but this time it has
been certified organic by COFCC. This tea is special because instead
of using inferior summer harvest Pu-erh for fermentation, instead
first flush spring material was used. In this case the raw material
is Spring 2006, and pressed in 2007. Aromatic and satisfying!

You will not believe, but here in Slovakia are people who write in
such idiotic way and they believe that they are cool, too. Most of
them is between 10-18.
