About This Tea
What does taste like?
From the mist-draped highlands of Nilgiri, this rare winter white tea unfolds into a luminous pale-green cup. Its aroma delights with notes of sun-ripened Alphonso mangoes and a soft vegetal whisper. . It leans fruity, vegetal and sweet.
How should I brew ?
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.
Where does come from?
Grown in Nilgiri, India from the B563 cultivar. This batch is from the Winter 2026 harvest.
How much does cost?
Starts at $24.80 from Tea Gardenia, or about $0.50/g. A 50g package gets you around 8 gongfu sessions at ~6 g each, which works out to about $3.00 per session. Explore more white teas on Teadar.
