KUURA-Cola® is an all-purpose, daily driver, minimal fuss, no-brainer kind of tea.

Now in its fifth edition, KUURA-Cola® remains our tried and true mainstay ripe puerh tea cake. This tea has a well-rounded profile and remarkably consistent character that makes it easy to brew, no matter the experience level or brewing set-up.

As a result of its clean fermentation, this tea has a smooth and rich mouthfeel, a balanced savoury-sweet flavour, and a pleasantly sweet fragrance with a rum-and-raisin kick. The characteristic indolent funkiness that you’d expect to find in a fresh ripe puerh is here too, but toned down and cleaned up thanks to three years of ageing on the base material. This means even less downtime on your end spent ‘airing the funkiness out’ before brewing and enjoying this ripe.

Whether you’re new to the world of ripe puerh or a longtime enthusiast, KUURA-Cola® is a tea you can reach for everyday. Brew it gongfu style for 10+ steeps, or throw a generous chunk in a mug and let it steep into a luxuriously thick cup of soothing ripe.

For an introduction to the KUURA-Cola® lore, we recommend exploring earlier editions of KUURA-Cola®.
