White Wuyi 2010 - White Tea

Born in the 1920s, White Shui Xian represents an innovated breakthrough in a century of tea craftsmanship. It takes the floral, robust Shui Xian cultivar, and combines it with the minimal processing methods of white tea, since then it has been aged for over a decade, allowing the fresh and delicate flavours to mature and deepen.

These leaves are delicate and sweet, offering a mild and cosy brew with a deep aroma of caramel, and sweet taste of pear.

Rock teas are known for their strong mineral flavour. This, in addition to the polyphenols and caffeine, can add to a bitter, astringent flavour in the brewed tea. We advise experimenting with quantity of tea leaves, water temperature, and brewing time to find the flavour that is best suited to you.

We source our teas as close to the original producer as possible, while other brands are often multiple steps removed from the original producer, our Chinese tea is sourced directly from the single farm which produces them, ensuring as much profit as possible goes to the people growing and blending the tea, and keeping these communities thriving.

In addition to this, a portion of our sales goes to Rainforest Trust UK, to do what we can to protect endangered species and threatened habitats across the world. Each cup you enjoy places 25sqm of endangered land under protection, so you can enjoy your tea knowing you're helping the environment, and the communities of those growing the tea.
