Ningde is nestled between the mountains and the ocean in the northeastern corner of China’s Fujian province. The region is also known as Min Dong in reference to the ancient Min culture of southeastern China.

Ancient Traditions
The region is full of wild mountains and lushly forested hilltops that lookout over emerald tea gardens and intricately terraced slopes and valleys. Tea has been growing in Ningde for centuries and long green and white tea making traditions continue to this day.

Regional Flavors
The flavor of Ningde teas can vary drastically depending on their proximity to the coast or inland mountains. This tea was grown on a high elevation mountain further inland and has a characteristic clean, clear aroma and taste.

Varietal
Using a “Fu Yun” leaf varietal, Imperial White is made by withering the tea indoors for several hours and air-drying in special rotating tea ovens. No rolling or bruising of the leaf is performed.
