Raw Pu-erh(Sheng) is made from unfermented tea leaves that undergo a natural aging process. This type of tea retains a fresh, grassy flavor with a complex range of notes, including floral and fruity characteristics. As it ages, raw Pu-erh develops deeper flavors and mellows out, often becoming more nuanced over time.The longer it\'s aged, the better the quality, making it valuable for collectors.
In contrast,ripe Pu-erh(Shou) undergoes an accelerated fermentation process known as wet piling, which gives it a bolder, earthier taste. Ripe Pu-erh typically has a darker color and a smoother texture, with flavor notes that can include woody, leathery, or mushroom-like qualities. Unlike raw Pu-erh, ripe tea does not change significantly with age and is usually ready to drink sooner after production.
