Tea Description | White Peony, or Bai Mu Dan, comes from the mountains of Fuding in the Fujian province of southern China, known all over the world for its high-quality white tea, and is the grand cru of White Peony tea. Smooth and mellow, White Peony is delicately crafted at the peak of the Tai Mu Mountain from the top bud and 2-3 leaves. It won the 2007 Gold Prize in Fujian Province's White Tea Contest, making it the #1 White Peony in the region.
Experts say that the altitude at which tea is grown is a very important factor in the quality of white tea; the higher the altitude, the better the quality. Our White Peony is grown at the altitude of more than 500 meters above sea level – and is considered to be of the highest quality in the White Peony Tea family. It is gathered in early spring, when the leaves are especially tender and full of nutrients.
Our White Peony has a delicate golden infusion with a silky, umami rich body and aromas of peach blossom, magnolia and blonde honey. White Peony Tea consists of both young tea leaves and yet unopened leaf buds, bursting with fresh floral flavor. If this is your first time brewing white tea, you may notice its very light color – and how subtle the flavor of white tea is, compared to green or black tea. Early steepings are laced with sweet honey clover notes, and a slight earthiness comes forward in later steepings. |
