The production process of Shu Pu-erh differs from that of Sheng Pu-erh. The production process of Sheng Pu-erh involves killing the leaves, rolling them, and drying them, while the production process of Shu Pu-erh involves killing the leaves, rolling them, piling them, and drying them. The pile fermentation is the key step in the production of Shu Pu-erh. During this process, the enzymes in the leaves oxidize and condense the polyphenols in the leaves, resulting in the unique flavor of Shu Pu-erh.
