Description

During the Song Dynasty, white tea was so precious, it was reserved exclusively for the Emperor of China. Today it’s enjoyed by millions around the world. Traditionally known as “Bai Mudan,” our White Peony brings that little taste of luxury straight to your cup. From a small, family-owned organic tea garden in the Fujian province, this beautiful blend of leaves and buds is plucked and meticulously dried in a controlled environment. The result? A slightly greener leaf that brews up cool, creamy and delicate, with the aroma of garden-picked snow peas. It’s a cup of fresh air…

Organic: White tea from Fujian province.
