Aged Fuding Bai Mudan

This aged white peony tea unveils a mellow sweetness with hints of dried apricot and a subtle woody undertone. The infusion is smooth and comforting, developing a delicate complexity that lingers on t. It leans aged, honeyed and mellow.

Water around 75–85 °C (167–185 °F). In a mug, steep 3–5 min. For gongfu, use 4–5 g per 100 ml, 20–40 s steeps. You'll get to see how the flavor changes across multiple rounds. Pretty forgiving. Oversteeping by a bit won't ruin it the way it would with a green.

Grown in Fujian, China. This batch is from the 2009 harvest.

Starts at $12.26 from Purple Cloud Tea House, or about $0.04/g. A 350g package gets you around 58 gongfu sessions at ~6 g each, which works out to about $0.24 per session. Explore more white teas on Teadar.
