wholsale tea

Biluochun is one of China's most iconic green teas with a legacy that spans a thousand years. It's renowned for its unique floral and fruity aroma, often hailed as the most fragrant tea among greens. Traditional Biluochun tea gardens interplant fruit trees with tea bushes, allowing the leaves to naturally absorb a rich bouquet of floral and fruity scents, creating Biluochun's distinctive fresh and natural fragrance.

Our connoisseur-grade Biluochun is handpicked from the collective species (Jiu Keng variety) tea garden in Jiangdong Village, Tongguan Village Committee, Daibu Town, Liyang City, Jiangsu Province. The tea is personally crafted by Master Zhang, who has 30 years of tea-making experience. He adheres to the most traditional hand-crafting techniques to ensure that each leaf embodies the authentic flavor profile of Biluochun. Master Zhang's Biluochun boasts a distinct floral and fruity aroma, a long-lasting aftertaste, and a refreshing spring vibe with a delicate mouthfeel.

This tea is harvested before the rain, selecting the high-grade one bud and one leaf tea materials. The leaves are plump and tender green, and the tea soup is clear in color with a fresh sweet taste, almost devoid of astringency. Although its flavor and quality are on par with products from the core production area, the price is only half to one-third of the core origin products, making it a Biluochun tea with both high quality and great value for money.

Reasons to recommend:

Unique floral and fruity aroma: Biluochun's signature scent comes from the interplanted fruit trees in the tea garden. The dry tea has a natural, light aroma that becomes more pronounced upon brewing, making it especially suitable for tea enthusiasts who prefer a subtle fragrance.
Traditional handcrafting: This tea is handmade by Master Zhang with 30 years of experience, ensuring that the shape and flavor of each tea leaf are perfectly preserved. Handcrafted tea has a more delicate taste and a long, lingering aftertaste.
Great value: Although the tea comes from the surrounding high mountain tea gardens of the core production area, the quality is comparable to the authentic origin, but the price is only half to one-third of the tea from the core production area, making it suitable for consumers who pursue value for money.
High-grade picking: The tea is picked according to the high-grade standard of one bud and one leaf, especially before the rain, ensuring the tenderness and fresh taste of the tea leaves, and the tea soup is clear and bright.
Not recommended for:

Tea enthusiasts who prefer a strong roasted flavor: If you like the strong roasted flavor or bean flavor brought by the pan-frying process of Longjing or Biluochun, the floral and fruity aroma of this Biluochun may not meet your taste preferences.
Consumers with a limited budget: Although this tea offers great value, there may be cheaper options for consumers who are solely focused on price.
In summary, if you're looking for traditional craftsmanship, high quality, and a unique flavor profile, and you're fond of Biluochun's distinctive floral and fruity aroma, this connoisseur-grade Biluochun is an ideal choice for you.

Origin of Biluochun

• Location: Liyang, Zhejiang Province, China

• Picking Standard: One bud with one leaf

• Tea Cultivar: Jiu Keng Variety — a local group small-leaf cultivar from Dongting Mountain

• Tea Tree Age: Approximately 60 years

We noticed that many popular Longjing teas are "knife-cut" varieties. These Green Tea are made from leaves cut after high-grade teas have been hand-harvested. As a result, they contain more stems, and the leaves are often incomplete, producing a weaker flavor and possibly coming from non-authentic Longjing varieties. We wanted to offer a Longjing tea that delivers the authentic taste, variety, and craftsmanship at an entry-level price, allowing more people to experience the true flavors of this iconic tea.

Why choose our Longjing?

Craftsmanship: Handcrafted by a Longjing master with over 30 years of experience, our tea combines traditional techniques and modern refinement.

Seasonal Selection: We’ve chosen 谷雨茶 (Grain Rain) tea, which is harvested just after Qingming tea. The taste difference is minimal, but the price is significantly more affordable.

High-Altitude Quality: Our tea comes from Zhejiang Lishui’s Longjing heirloom variety. The climate and high altitude (900-1000 meters) offer conditions similar to West Lake, but with superior pricing and quality.

Leaf Grade: Selected for its high grade—one bud, two leaves—this tea is always made from the freshest spring harvest of the current year, ensuring it is new every year. Ideal for those who enjoy a clean, refreshing taste with signature chestnut and bean notes.

Precision Hand-Picking: Each batch is handpicked to ensure no stems and minimal tea dust, ensuring a purer brew with authentic flavor.

This tea is perfect for:

Tea lovers seeking an authentic Longjing experience with superior craftsmanship, and flavor,
People needing a mild caffeine boost, as Longjing’s caffeine content is moderate, helping with focus and alertness,
Tea culture enthusiasts, as Longjing is one of China’s top 10 famous teas with a rich history and tradition.
If you're looking for an entry-level authentic variety, craftsmanship, and flavor in Zhejiang Longjing, this is the most cost-effective option we could find!

Key Details About Ancient Tree Black Tea:

Origin: Jingmai, Pu'er, Yunnan
Harvest Date: April 2024
Leaf Grade: One bud with two leaves
Tea Tree Variety: Small-leaf tea trees
Tea Master: Zhu Yafen, Jingmai Mountain
Flavor Profile: The tea liquor delivers a strong, lasting aroma and a smooth mouthfeel. Jingmai tea is known for its distinctive fragrance that lingers in the tea liquor. The blend of floral and honey aromas creates a dynamic experience, with the scent lingering in your mouth long after sipping.

Storage: 
Keep sealed, dry, and away from light or odors. For longer preservation, store in a cool environment. Best enjoyed within two years.

Why Ancient Tree Black Tea Stands Out
Ancient tea trees, often over 100 years old, grow in remote, pristine mountain forests, free from synthetic fertilizers or pesticides. Their deep roots absorb rich minerals and nutrients, resulting in tea with a full-bodied, layered flavor and natural floral or honey notes.

The leaves of ancient tree black tea are thicker and more resilient, with higher levels of polyphenols and aromatic compounds, making the tea exceptionally durable in brewing. Each steep releases consistent flavor and aroma, often lasting for many infusions.

Yunnan, home to over 56 million ancient tea trees, is known as the “kingdom of ancient tea.” With the introduction of the Yunnan Ancient Tea Tree Protection Regulation in 2023, these trees are now safeguarded to ensure their heritage continues. Ancient tree black tea is a unique gem, offering both a pure taste and a connection to centuries of tradition.

Why this product?
Many people are unclear about what qualifies as aged tea and how to tell the age of tea. iTeaworld has been working with aged tea in the Chinese market for 20 years. We believe that for tea to be considered "aged," it should meet these three criteria: 1. It should have an aged or woody aroma. 2. The tea liquor should be smooth, rich, and sweet. 3. There should be a noticeable warm sensation in the body, especially in the hands and feet, after drinking.

Based on this standard, we’ve selected 10 aged teas, including Oolong, black tea, white tea, dark tea, Pu-erh, and green tea, to help tea lovers understand what aged tea really is.

Why Aged Tea is Still Drinkable:

The reason aged tea can still be consumed safely lies in the unique chemistry of tea leaves and traditional storage methods. Tea contains powerful antioxidants like catechins and polyphenols, which naturally help slow oxidation, keeping tea consumable for extended periods. Dried tea absorbs only minimal moisture and oxygen, meaning it doesn’t provide the damp environment that bacteria need to grow. As long as tea is stored properly—dry, cool, and sealed against odors—it won’t spoil easily, and you can enjoy it without worries if there’s no mold or strange smells.

How Different Types of Tea Age:

Dark Tea (Hei Cha)
Dark tea, when properly aged, undergoes microbial transformations that mellow its flavor. Over time, compounds like caffeine and polyphenols break down, shifting the taste from bitter to smooth and rich. Dark tea requires specific storage conditions: dry, airy, and cool, to support this mellowing process.

White Tea
In China, there’s a saying about white tea: "One-year tea, three-year medicine, seven-year treasure." Aging for three years or more brings out richer flavors and enhances its perceived medicinal value. As white tea ages, the leaves soften in flavor and aroma, creating a more layered drinking experience.

Black Tea
Black tea generally maintains its natural sweetness and fragrance over time, and since its flavor doesn’t improve with aging, most black teas are best enjoyed fresh. However, certain types of compressed black teas, like Hunan's Fu Brick, can develop deeper flavors with storage due to gradual microbial changes.

Oolong Tea
Roasted Oolong teas like Wuyi Rock Tea (Yan Cha) gain complexity as they age. The roasted notes soften, and the tea develops a distinctive “aged aroma,” adding richness and hints of sweetness. Proper storage is essential to preserve its unique characteristics: keep it dry, away from direct sunlight, and sealed to maintain freshness.

Jasmine Green Tea
Jasmine Green Tea, infused with fresh jasmine flowers, has a unique floral aroma that is best enjoyed within one or two years. Over time, the green tea component oxidizes, leading to a darker color and a softer floral note. To preserve the jasmine aroma and freshness, it’s ideal to store it sealed, in a cool, dry place, or even refrigerate it if possible.

Refined 110ml Bone China Gaiwan

Designed for Aroma, Comfort, and Mindful Brewing

Product Overview

Material: Bone China
Composition: Made primarily from bone ash (calcined animal bone, ≥30%), kaolin, quartz, and feldspar
Origin: Chaozhou, Guangdong, China
Bone China Thickness: 1.5–2.5mm

Gaiwan

• Capacity: 110ml

• Dimensions: Diameter 7.8cm, Height 7cm

• Weight: 74.1g

Teacup

• Capacity: 32ml

• Dimensions: Diameter 5.2cm, Height 3cm

• Weight: 14g

Available Sets

• Option 1: One 110ml bone china gaiwan

• Option 2: One 110ml bone china gaiwan + Four 32ml bone china teacups

Bone China Craftsmanship

• Firing Process: Low-temperature bisque firing followed by high-temperature glaze firing (~1200°C)

• Appearance: Smooth milky-white glaze with a fine, delicate texture

• Double Firing: First fired unglazed for shape stability, then glazed and refired at high temperatures — a complex process with a relatively low yield

• Translucency & Tone: When thin, the body is translucent due to bone ash content. When tapped, it produces a crisp, bell-like sound

How Bone China Affects Tea Flavor

Advantages:

• Neutral & Stable: The chemically inert glaze doesn’t absorb aroma or flavor, making it ideal for highly aromatic teas such as oolong and dancong. Preserves fragrance clarity and detail.

• Fast Heat Dissipation: Thin walls release heat quickly, which prevents delicate green and white teas from over-steeping. Keeps the brew fresh and clean.

Limitation:

• Weaker Heat Retention: Not ideal for teas that require prolonged high temperatures (e.g., aged pu-erh), unless poured promptly.

Recommended Teas for This Bone China Gaiwan

1. Aromatic Oolong Teas

(e.g., Wuyi rock oolong, Dancong, Tie Guan Yin)
✅ Non-absorbent glaze preserves floral, fruity, and roasted aromas
✅ Quick heat dissipation prevents excessive volatilization of aromatic compounds

2. Tender Green Teas

(e.g., Longjing, Biluochun)
✅ Cools quickly to prevent scalding delicate buds, preserving freshness
✅ Smooth glaze enhances the sweet, umami-rich character of the liquor

3. High-Grade Young White Teas

(e.g., Silver Needle, White Peony)
✅ Neutral surface keeps the natural honeyed and floral notes intact
✅ Light glaze highlights the golden hue of the brew and the fine downy buds

4. Sweet-Scented Black Teas

(e.g., Jin Jun Mei, Dianhong)
✅ Locks in sweet and honeyed aromas for a fuller taste
✅ Translucent body enhances visual clarity—“golden rings” appear more vibrant

Conclusion

This bone china gaiwan is the perfect match for aromatic, delicate, and flavor-focused teas. It combines non-absorbency, quick cooling, and clarity to bring out the true character of each brew.

Wild Souchong Black Tea uses wild tea leaves from mountains in Guangxi Province. It uses a special tea-making method of traditional Lapsang Souchong technique. Wild Souchong Black Tea maintains the taste of Lapsang Souchong, while it has a richer flavor. Lapsang Souchong is the earliest black tea and it is called black tea originator. It has a history of 400 years. Lapsang Souchong is baked by pine needles or pine wood. As a result, it has very strong fragrance. Also, due to the bake technique, the color of the tea is grey black and the color of tea soup is dark amber.

Jasmine Oolong Tea
Authentic Jasmine Oolong is a premium tea that combines the fresh, fragrant notes of Jasmine flowers with the smooth, rich flavor of Oolong tea. The process involves carefully blending freshly bloomed Jasmine flowers with Oolong tea leaves during the drying stage, allowing the tea to absorb the flower's natural fragrance.

After the scenting process, the tea is dried again to lock in that fresh, vibrant Jasmine aroma.

For the best flavor, Jasmine Oolong is typically made with high-quality, lightly fragrant Tie Guan Yin Oolong tea leaves, harvested during the summer or autumn season.

Minnan Narcissus is a famous historical tea. It is a kind of oolong tea. During Xianfeng period (1851-1861), Shibao Zhen and his son brought 100 tea tree saplings from Wuyishan and planted the saplings in Dingxianyan successfully. Then, combining Wuyishan tea-making techniques and their own experience, Shibao Zhen and his son developed Dingxianyan Narcissus. The new type of tea was widely known by oversea Chinese, especially Chinese in Southeast Asia. At the beginning of 20th century, Dingxianyan Narcissus was widely transplanted to Wutaishan, Yongchun and it got a name: Yongchun Narcissus. After 1949, Yongchun Narcissus was transplanted to more than 10 towns in Minnan and got a name: Minnan Narcissus. Minnan Narcissus is distinct from other tea by its unique aroma.

This tea was freshly roasted on September 7 and is recommended to be stored for a period of time before drinking.

Why shouldn’t freshly roasted Oolong tea be consumed right away?

Right after roasting, the tea has a strong charcoal aroma that can mask its natural fragrance and flavor. It also retains a certain “fiery” quality — caffeine and tea polyphenols remain high, making the taste slightly harsh or astringent and potentially irritating to the throat or stomach. Drinking it too soon can also lead to a feeling of internal heat, especially for those prone to “heatiness” or during dry seasons, known in traditional Chinese medicine as “shang huo” (excess internal heat). These symptoms quickly subside once consumption stops.

To avoid discomfort, let the tea rest before drinking. This allows the fire taste to fade (“tui huo”) and the tea’s components to stabilize. Once rested, the tea becomes smoother and more balanced in both aroma and flavor. Lightly roasted teas need about 1–2 months to rest, while medium to heavily roasted ones require around 6 months.

Introduction:
This premium Tieguanyin is meticulously selected from the autumn harvest of 2023. Plucked from high-altitude tea gardens in Anxi, Fujian (the most authentic origin), the exceptional growing conditions impart a rich and robust flavor profile. Carefully crafted in small batches by professional tea farmers, this tea guarantees a smooth, mellow taste with a strong orchid fragrance.

The relative humidity exceeds 78%, and the acidic red soil, rich in organic matter and minerals, contributes to the unique flavor of Tieguanyin tea trees.
• High-Altitude Tea Gardens: Compared to other Tieguanyin teas, this one is cultivated in high-altitude gardens in Anxi, where the superior climate enhances the tea's richness, delivering a smoother, sweeter aftertaste and a more intense aroma.

Enshi Yulu is a long-standing Chinese green tea made with the traditional steaming process, making it the only green tea in China that still uses this ancient method. The steaming technique was passed from China to Japan during the Tang Dynasty and has since become the main process for Japanese green tea. With its unique seaweed aroma, similar to Japanese sencha, Enshi Yulu retains the essence of traditional Chinese tea making.

Our Enshi Yulu comes straight from the heart of its production area, the Banqiao Dong Autonomous Township in Enshi, Hubei, China. The tea leaves are personally handpicked and crafted by Master He, a tea farmer with over 20 years of experience. His garden grows local Enshi tea varietals, and he selects only the highest grade of one bud and one leaf to ensure every sip is fresh, rich, and sweet without astringency, accompanied by a slight seaweed flavor. Most importantly, this tea is naturally rich in selenium, an essential trace element that can boost immunity, combat oxidation, and help lower blood pressure. Enshi, known as the "Selenium Capital of the World," offers these health benefits through its tea.

Reasons to choose Enshi Yulu:

Unique craftsmanship and historical legacy: For tea enthusiasts who love to explore traditional tea culture, Enshi Yulu offers a taste of China's oldest steaming process with a seaweed aroma reminiscent of Japanese green tea. Consumers who appreciate the flavor profile of Japanese sencha will also enjoy the distinctive taste of the steaming process.
Great value for money: We've selected a mid-range Enshi Yulu that maintains the quality of the core production area and authentic craftsmanship while being affordable. It's a fantastic green tea with a high cost-performance ratio, perfect for those who seek quality without breaking the bank.
Health benefits: Rich in selenium, Enshi Yulu offers antioxidant properties and can enhance immunity, making it ideal for health-conscious tea drinkers.
Cultural charm: This tea is from the ethnically diverse Enshi region, home to the Dong, Tujia, and Miao ethnic groups, among others. Interested consumers can even visit Enshi to experience the unique culture and natural environment firsthand.
Not recommended for:

Tea lovers who prefer the strong, pan-fried aroma of roasted green teas like Longjing or Biluochun, as Enshi Yulu does not have those flavors.
Those who dislike the seaweed aroma: If you're not a fan of the fresh, oceanic scent that comes from the steaming process, Enshi Yulu might not be your cup of tea.
Whether you're interested in traditional craftsmanship, health benefits, or great value, Enshi Yulu is an ideal choice for you.

Origin of Enshi Yulu

• Location: Bajiang Dong Ethnic Township, Enshi, Hubei Province, China

• Picking Standard: One bud with one leaf

• Tea Cultivar: Enshi Small-leaf Variety

Introduction:
This Jasmine Bai Hao is meticulously selected from the spring harvest of 2023. Plucked from high-altitude tea gardens in northern Fujian, at elevations of approximately 1000 meters, the exceptional growing conditions impart a fresh and richly layered flavor to this jasmine tea. The plucking standard of exclusively whole buds, combined with nine scenting processes, ensures a vibrant, luxurious floral aroma, a refreshing and mellow taste, and a sweet, lingering aftertaste with a hint of rock sugar sweetness.

Reasons to Recommend:

• Core Production Area: Grown in northern Fujian, where the climate is warm, humid, and evergreen year-round. With abundant sunshine, ample rainfall, and a frost-free period of 326 days, the region provides an ideal environment for tea cultivation.
• Scenting Process: Fuding Big Pekoe serves as the tea base, while jasmine flowers from Fuzhou, Fujian, are used for scenting. The traditional scenting process is repeated nine times, resulting in a tea that is described as uplifting, soothing, and warming, evoking the image of a jasmine flower slowly blooming.
• Whole Bud Material: The plump, straight bud tips are covered in abundant, visible white hairs, indicating their tenderness. These buds absorb the jasmine fragrance more effectively during scenting, resulting in a more intense, fresh aroma and a smoother taste. The tea retains its flavor and aroma even after multiple infusions.
