Moonlight White

This white from Yunnan, China offers a distinctive drinking experience. This delicate white tea offers a smooth and inviting experience, unfolding with a soft aroma and a naturally sweet aftertaste. It is a wonderfully approachable tea, perfect for a gentle daily brew. It sits in the "Sweet" and "Smooth" and "Soft" flavor families, so expect a cup that leans sweet and smooth and soft.

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. This particular batch comes from the 2021 harvest.
