Pressed White Tea Pearl from Fuding

Harvest : 04/05/2022

Brewing temperature: 100 °C, 2-3 minutes (1-2nd infusion), 1 minute (3-4th infusion), 40 seconds (after the tea pearl has completely opened into loose leaves). After the 8th infusion, this tea, like all Gongmei, Shoumei and aged white teas, can be boiled in water for 15 minutes to obtain a sweeter taste.

Four grades of Fuding white tea

Fuding white tea has four varieties: Silver Needle, Pai Mu Tan, Gong Mei, Shoumei. Silver Needle consists of only tea buds without leaves. It is usually picked between February and the end of March. Pai Mu Tan consists of a bud with one leaf or a bud with two leaves. It is usually picked from the end of March to the last week of April. Gong Mei and Shoumei are similar varieties - Gong Mei has some buds, but Shoumei has only large leaves. They are usually picked from the last week of April until before the start of summer, as well as in the fall. Good tea plantations usually do not pick in the summer because tea from summer has the least flavor.

Shoumei and Gongmei have noticeably more mature flavors than Silver Needle and Pai Mu Tan. While Silver Needle and Pai Mu Tan are known for their fresh, nutty and floral aroma and flavor, Gongmei and Shoumei tend to have a more mature flavor, reminiscent of Chinese red dates, dried plums and dried berries with a certain aroma of herbal medicine.

Ergiebig, gut im Geschmack

Ein guter Tee der im lazy Gaiwan sehr angenehm zubereitet ist. Geschmacklich macht der Tee mit verschiedenen Profilen ja nach Aufguss auch einen soliden Eindruck. Kann man aber auch länger ziehen lassen öasst euch nicht von irgendeinem Bauern sagen wie ihr euren Tee zu trinken habt.

Too tightly pressed

The fragrance is what I look for in a shou mei white tea, candied fruit, berries and a hint of hay and the taste is also quite good. Very clear taste with almost no astringency and already a hint of aged white tea after only 3 years. However the one issue I have with this tea is that the pearls are pressed way too tightly! I have tried to blast it with hot water for several infusions to help it break up but had to manually pull the leaves apart, hence I was unable to look for whole leaves that determines the quality of this tea. In conclusion, a good beginner tea for a fairly good price (€1.20! A pearl) but advanced tea drinkers may want to look for something else.

Hi Sofie, thank you for your feedback to our Shoumei Pearl 2022. The tea is indeed quite tightly pressed, however we never experienced an issue with unfolding. Great to hear, that you liked the taste of it thoug.
Best wishes, Jonas

Weißer Charme

Der Tee ist sanft wie ein Wasserfall und reißt einen direkt mit zur Freude beim Genuss. Ich mag diese Sorte gern.

Shoumei Tee Perle

Dies ist der erste Weißtee, den ich lagern möchte. Eine Perle habe ich direkt probiert und der Tee hat mir gefallen. Ich bin gespannt, wie er sich mit der Zeit entwickeln wird. Ein großer Kuchen ist womöglich am geeignetsten für die Lagerung, aber die Portionierung als Perlen ist sehr praktisch.

Hallo Marko, da sind wir auch gespannt, denn ich denke beim Charakter ist noch Luft nach oben, auch wenn er jetzt schon sehr angenehm schmeckt. Intensiver sollte er bestimmt mit der Zeit werden.😋
