Your Journey Through White Tea: Fresh & Aged Favorites
White tea is as versatile as it is elegant. In China, premium white teas like Silver Needle and White Peony are often enjoyed fresh, while teas like Gongmei and Shoumei are treasured for their bold, rich flavors after years of aging. To showcase this tradition, we’ve included both fresh and aged teas in this collection, offering a complete white tea experience.
Here’s what’s inside:
Silver Needle (Baihao Yinzhen): Made from pure tea buds, this 2024 harvest is floral, smooth, and sweet—perfect for enjoying fresh and ideal for long-term storage.
White Peony (Bai Mudan): With one bud and one leaf, this 2024 spring tea balances freshness with soft fruity notes. Enjoy it now or save it for later.
Gongmei: Aged for 10 years (2014), this tea features one bud and two leaves, offering a richer body and a honey-like sweetness. Best enjoyed steeped or simmered for a cozy brew.
Shoumei: Also aged for 10 years (2014), this tea is made from larger leaves, delivering a full-bodied, bold flavor that truly shines when simmered.
As the Chinese saying goes, “One year tea, three years medicine, seven years treasure.” This highlights the magic of white tea—it’s delightful fresh and transforms into something extraordinary with age.
Whether you’re new to white tea or a lifelong enthusiast, this collection offers a thoughtful way to explore its diversity. It’s perfect for personal discovery or as a special gift for any tea lover!
