This 2014 aged Shou Mei White Tea is made from Fuding Da Bai and Da Hao tea cultivars grown in Fujian, China. Crafted with traditional sun-drying methods, it delivers a unique blend of "aged aroma" and "herbal fragrance." With a rich, sweet aftertaste and long-lasting brews, this tea is ideal for those who appreciate the complexity of aged teas.

There’s no need to measure—perfect for quick and convenient brewing.

What is Shou Mei White Tea?
Shou Mei is a type of Chinese white tea primarily grown in Fuding, Zhenghe, and Songxi in Fujian Province. Its name, "Longevity Eyebrow," refers to the tea's leaf shape, which resembles the eyebrows of an elderly person. According to the latest national standards, Shou Mei is crafted from young shoots or leaves of tea plants such as Da Bai, Shui Xian, or local varietals through withering, drying, and sorting processes. While often considered less delicate than other white teas, its robust and complex flavor makes it a great choice for tea beginners.
Brewing and Enjoyment Tips for Shou Mei White Tea:
Shou Mei is not typically consumed fresh; it is better appreciated after aging for at least three years. With time, the tea develops deeper, more layered flavors. After 10 years, aged Shou Mei offers a smoother, sweeter taste, a richer, darker tea liquor, and distinctive "aged" and "herbal" aromas. These qualities make aged Shou Mei highly valued among white tea enthusiasts. It’s best enjoyed when simmered or steeped for extended periods.
Storage Guidelines for Shou Mei White Tea:
To preserve its quality, store the tea in a dry environment with moisture content below 8.5%, temperature around 25°C (77°F), and humidity under 45%. Keep it away from light, odors, and air exposure by sealing it tightly. After three years of proper storage, the tea can be classified as “aged white tea.”

2025 Biluochun First Flush - Rare Reserve Spring Tea(Pre-sale)
We’re excited to offer you the 2025 Early Spring First Flush Bi Luo Chun, sourced from the tea garden of Master Zhang in Dongguan Village, Dai Bu Town, Liyang City, Jiangsu Province. Master Zhang has over 20 years of tea-making experience, having learned from his father, who has been a renowned tea master for over 40 years. Master Zhang has kept traditional tea-making methods alive, using hand-rolling, roasting, and drying techniques passed down through generations. This year's tea is picked in late March, around March 20, and features tender, fresh leaves at the "one bud, one leaf" stage, ensuring the highest quality flavor and aroma.

Why We Source Biluochun from Liyang's Dai Town Instead of Lake Dongting
While Lake Dongting's Biluochun gets the hype, our Liyang Dai Town tea is the purist's pick. Think of it like craft beer vs. mass-produced lager – both quench your thirst, but one's got soul. Grown 60 miles west of Dongting in pollution-free mountain air, these old-growth tea bushes (the hardy 'Jiukeng' variety) have weathered decades to develop complex flavors. You get that classic Biluochun vibe, minus the touristy markup.
Why Handcrafted Beats Machine-Made
Master Zhang treats tea like a slow-cooked meal – no shortcuts. His hands knead each leaf to unlock natural oils (that's where the floral magic happens!), while factory machines just crush and rush. It's the difference between grandma's pie crust and frozen supermarket stuff. Want silky texture and aroma that dances on your tongue? That's the artisan craft talking.

Plucked from high-altitude tea gardens in Lincang, Yunnan Province, at elevations of approximately 1000 meters, the exceptional growing conditions impart a refreshing taste and rich, layered flavors to this jasmine tea. The plucking standard of primarily one bud and two leaves, combined with five scenting processes, ensures a pure floral aroma, a sweet and mellow taste, and a refreshing, lingering aftertaste.

- Scenting Process: High-quality green tea serves as the base, while jasmine flowers from Hengzhou, Guangxi, are used for scenting. The traditional scenting process is repeated five times, resulting in a tea where the floral aroma dominates and infuses into the liquor. The fragrance is pronounced but not overpowering, and the tea liquor is refreshing yet clear.
- High-Mountain Tea Gardens: Since ancient times, high mountains shrouded in mist have produced premium teas.

This is a complete tea set that a customer was looking for. We sourced a few high-quality options for them to choose from, and they ended up selecting this set. This Chinese tea set is part of the Ru Kiln ware collection. It's shipped directly from Dehua, the porcelain capital of China, and is produced by a well-established brand that has been in the industry for twelve years. The brand is quite popular, with 100,000 followers on the Chinese version of TikTok. With regular use and nourishment by tea soup, this set will develop these mysterious golden lines, also known as "crazing" or "bloom." Craazing, also referred to as "bloom," is an irrational reaction during the Ru Kiln firing process, where natural cracks appear on the surface of the porcelain. This is often seen as a unique decorative effect. These cracks form due to the different expansion rates of the body and glaze during firing and are sometimes intentionally created to produce a distinctive beauty.
This tea set includes:
6 tea cups with a capacity of 50ml each
1 Gaiwan with a capacity of 155ml
1 tea strainer set measuring 9.7cm by 3.8cm
1 fairness cup L: 13.6cm W: 9cm H: 5.5cm
1 tea tool holder with tea tools (known as the "Six Gentlemen")
1 tea tray L:36cm, W:24cm, H:3.5cm
Size Range:5cm*3.5cm*4.7cm
Ru Kiln :Ru Kiln is located in Qingliang Temple, Baofeng County, Henan Province, which was part of Ruzhou during the Song Dynasty, hence the name. It is known as the foremost among the "Five Great Kilns" and has the reputation of being "like jade, not jade, but superior to jade." Belonging to the celadon series, the main glaze colors include sky blue, powder blue, and sky blue, with the sky blue being the most precious. The glaze of Ru Kiln is warm and jade-like, pure and soft, and simple yet elegant.
The body of the porcelain is grayish-white, similar to the gray after incense has burned, commonly known as the "incense ash body." The glaze has fine cracks that interweave in a diagonal pattern, deep and shallow, resembling fish scales or cicada wings. There are very few surviving pieces of Ru Kiln porcelain.
Ge Kiln:Ge Kiln porcelain is famous for its unique crackle glaze, which has a natural and unpretentious pattern, forming a strong contrast with the smooth and moist glaze. The body color comes in various shades including black, dark gray, light gray, and earthy yellow, with the grayish-blue being predominant. The Ge Kiln is mainly known for its celadon color. The surviving pieces of Ge Kiln porcelain are mainly collected in the Palace Museum in Beijing, the National Palace Museum in Taipei, the Shanghai Museum, and some major museums abroad. The Ge Kiln is part of the official kilns from the Song Dynasty.
