Made from spring 2024 Fuding material, this mudan grade tea offers a more refreshing and sweeter experience than our Shoumei grade Little Mountains. Visually, this also has a much higher concentration of fine fuzz, thanks to all the buds. The higher grade spring material also has a few less years of age on it, giving it a more floral fragrance. Similarly, this tea is also excellent for long brewing in a glass or pitcher.
If brewing gongfu style, we recommend allowing for an extended first brew of up to 1 minute or an additional rinse to allow the tea to open up. After several brews, you may want to boil the leaves for a few minutes (refilling with water as needed) to extract the most from these little fellas.
This is also a great tea to throw in a thermos and refill while you’re out, maintaining plenty of flavour and never getting too bitter. Cold brewing is another great option.
Each little mountain is ~4-6g in weight. The size options below are minimums and may contain a few grams extra.

Bitterleaf TeasWestern – a long steep to decompress the leaves to start. This is not as old as the shoumei (2020). Softer, thicker, a little bit floral, a little bit sweet – kind of reminds me of clover? flowers straight from the field. Honey a bit. Much softer than the shoumei. The leaves are greener looking in the cup. It’s okay. I like my whites a little more robust.
Flavors: Clover, Floral, Honey, Sweet
Thermos brewed!
I wasn’t sure how well this white tea would come out steeped this way, but it’s actually quite smooth and comforting with a light and creamy top note of whipped honey and vanilla and a more crisp, cooling vegetal finish that just screams of snow peas.It’s so miserable and gross out today, but the light, fresh warmth of this tea is making it a whole lot better. I’m sure I’ll get more nuance out of this baimudan when I take more time to steep it gongfu and sit with the flavours, but right now it’s perfect as is!
