Drum Mountain White Cloud (Gu Shan Bai Yuan)

White Tea by Silk Road Teas

Grown in the mountains in northern Fujian Province near the Buddhist Drum Mountain Monastery where monks have harvested this tea for centuries. A mix of full-sized light to dark green leaves, they make a fragrant and sweet white tea that is easy to drink, refreshes and compliments food.

Love white teas. This is to me the sweeter ‘Snow Bud green tea’. They have similar clean taste with a very light vegetal after taste. This one starts more sweeter like light honey. I usually do two steeps, the second is a bit more vegetal and grassy. (You can try re-steeping snow bud but to me it gets a bit astringent.)
