Spring Aged Yunnan White Tea

This 2020 spring harvest white tea from Min Feng Mountain in Yunnan offers a thick, viscous liquor with a deep orange-red hue. Air-dried and pressed into cakes, it delivers a robust flavor and aroma w. It leans fruity, viscous and woody.

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 Yunnan, China from the assamica cultivar. This batch is from the Spring 2020 harvest.

Starts at $6.50 from Yunnan Sourcing, or about $0.14/g. A 25g package gets you around 4 gongfu sessions at ~6 g each, which works out to about $0.84 per session. Compare white prices across vendors on Teadar.
