Chrysanthemum's yellow petal, a cooling herb in traditional Chinese medicine, adds a flowery note to Yunnan Pu-erh tea.
I pick chrysanthemums beneath the east hedge and far away see the southern mountains. -- T'ao Ch'ien (372? - 427)
The yellow petals of chrysanthemum, a cooling herb in traditional Chinese medicine, add a flowery note to Yunnan Pu-erh tea. Pu-erh is semi-fermented tea, prized since the Sung Dynasty for its medicinal properties.
In 1690, Japan was ruled by the Tokugawa Shogunate, the Manchus had repelled the Mongols, Louis XIV ruled in splendor from his new palace in Versailles, Czar Peter had just attained the throne and Johann Sebastian Bach was five years old. And that same year in Japan, the Yamamoto family began producing premium teas, a tradition that continues to this day. More than three centuries of experience go into the selection and processing of Yamamotoyama Teas, among the finest in the world.
