Taiga Herbal Drink Siberian Pu-erh, Bar 96 g - Ivan Da

What Is This Herbal Tea

IVAN DA Siberi puer TAIGA 96 g is a pressed herbal tea bar from Ivan Da, created for people who enjoy deep, fermented flavours but want a caffeine-free drink. It is often chosen as an alternative to classic pu-erh or black tea when you want a rich, slightly earthy cup in the evening, during work breaks, or in colder weather. The taste comes not from Camellia sinensis tea leaves, but from fermented fireweed and aromatic wild Siberian plants.

Flavour and Composition

The key idea behind this herbal drink is fermentation. During this process, the taste of fireweed becomes fuller, rounder and less grassy, with soft woody and fruity notes. Fermented fireweed is widely used in Eastern European herbal tea traditions as a base for warming infusions with a smooth character.

In this blend, fireweed is paired with a selection of wild Siberian plants that create a layered flavour profile — berry sweetness, gentle tartness, a resinous herbal nuance and a slightly tannic finish:

• Fireweed flowers — contribute to the aromatic character of the blend
• Bird cherry berries — valued for tannins and phytoncides, plant substances that help the plant protect itself in nature
• Rose hips — traditionally appreciated for their bright, fruity note
• Angelica root — adds warmth and depth to the infusion
• Kuril tea — makes the infusion more structured and slightly astringent
• Bergenia leaves — contribute to a satisfying, mature brew that many tea lovers appreciate

How to Brew and Use

The pressed format makes this herbal beverage practical. The bar is divided into segments, so it is easy to portion, and one piece can be infused several times. The flavour opens gradually: the first brew is usually denser and more aromatic, while later infusions become softer and lighter. This makes IVAN DA Siberi puer TAIGA suitable for slow tea drinking at home or at the office, especially for those who like to explore how a blend changes from cup to cup.

Before You Try It

As with any herbal product, it is best to start with a moderate amount if you are trying it for the first time. If you are sensitive to particular herbs or berries, check the composition before use.
