White Whole Leaf Tea

White Tea by Rare Tea Company

Also Know as Bai Mu Dan this delicate Spring tea is sourced from a farm high in the Fujian mountains near the village of Fuding. This is the ‘champagne’ of white tea regions. The farm has no electricity and everything is done by hand to exacting traditional methods.

Unlike White Silver Tip Tea which comprises just the spring buds this tea also contains the first delicate leaves. This combination of tender spring buds and the freshest new leaves, plucked just as they open to the sun, creates a remarkable depth of flavour. Light, soft, sweet and green like freshly mown grass the flavour is wonderfully rounded.

Opening my second Rare tea company Tea tin.

It tastes very gentle and nice. Slightly silver needle-ish. Sweet. Very subtle should maybe even steep it longer.

Promising. Won’t rate just yet.
