This slice of Pai Mu Tan white tea was harvested and pressed in spring 2024 in Tai Mu Mountains in Fuding, Fujian Province China, the birthplace of white tea. The tea was picked according to the principle of " one bud and two leaves ". The buds are large with white fur, the young leaves are small and complete.

This Pai Mu Tan white tea will not be bitter even if you let it brew a little longer. We recommend the Chinese Gongfu style preparation method for this tea.

1. It is best to use 8 grams of white tea leaves in 200 ml of water and let it brew for about 20 seconds. The water should not be hotter than 75 °C.
2. With the Gong Fu preparation, Pai Mu Tan white tea can be brewed at least 8 times .
3. The young Pai Mu Tan smells like a green meadow full of spring flowers. The first infusion tastes gentle and sweet like morning dew, the second juicy like young melon, and the sweetness becomes less floral in the following brews, more like honey or syrup.
