Pu-erh tea, originating in Yunnan, China, boasts a history that spans over 2,000 years. Its fame quickly flourished throughout the region, eventually leading to the creation of the legendary Tea Horse Road, a bustling trade route connecting Yunnan locals with Tibetan Buddhists. Chinese nobles traded tea for horses needed to transport goods, while Tibetan monks cherished the fermented tea. Investment in this vital route grew as more travelers braved its treacherous, snowy mountain paths. The trail inspired countless legends and stories, but the demand for both the tea and the route endured.
