Aged Yunnan White Tea

This white from Yunnan, China offers a distinctive drinking experience. This 2021 sun-dried white tea from Yunnan offers a delightful profile of rich candy sweetness. Bright and clear on the palate, it carries lovely sugarcane aromas that beautifully linger long after eac. It sits in the "Sweet" and "Sugarcane" and "Bright" flavor families, so expect a cup that leans sweet and sugarcane and bright.

Aim for water around 75–85 °C (167–185 °F). Western style: steep for 3–5 minutes in a mug or teapot. Gongfu style: use 4–5 g per 100 ml, 20–40 s infusions for multiple short steeps — this way you can taste how the flavor evolves. White tea is forgiving. If you overshoot the steep time a little, it rarely turns bitter.

This white is grown in Yunnan, China and is made from the Camellia sinensis var. assamica cultivar. This particular batch comes from the 2021 harvest.

Prices start at $9.75 through white2tea — that works out to about $0.39 per gram. A 25g package gives you roughly 4 gongfu sessions at ~6 g each, which puts each session at around $2.34. You can compare prices across all vendors carrying this tea on the Teadar product page.
