Origin

The ingredients of this biscuit-shaped white peony white tea are one bud and one or two leaves of Dabai or Dahao tea plants, were plucked in the spring of 2022 year, come from the Panxi Town, Fuding city, the hometown of Chinese White Tea, in Fujian Province.

Panxi, the overall altitude is between 300 to 1200 meters. The mountains are rolling here, most of the tea gardens in Panxi are located in the deep mountains, which keeps the tea trees away from pollution. At the same time, the high mountains are cloudy and foggy, and the temperature on the high mountains is low, so the growth of tea is relatively slow, which is conducive to the accumulation of soluble substances and aroma substances in tea, and the quality of fresh leaves is relatively much better.

Panxi is regarded as an ecological town due to its 88% forest coverage rate and 96% greening rate. It has a mild climate and abundant rainfall. The soil is mainly yellow-red gravel soil with high organic matter and mineral content, which is very suitable for the growth of tea trees.

Appearance & Taste

After being withered and dried by the natural sun, the buds are covered with layers of white, fine, fluffy hairs, and the leaves are gray green. For easy carrying and storage, every 5 grams of the dried buds and leaves are compressed into biscuit-shape, one piece in one bag for one drinking, very convenient.

Storage

1. Keep out of the Sun

If white tea is directly exposed to sunlight, the substances contained in the leaves will start to decompose, reducing the nutritional value and affecting the taste of the tea.

2. Keep dry and tightly sealed

If to let the white tea under a wet environment for a long time, it will easy to get mold and develop a so-called "plum aroma." To prevent the tea turning bad or going mouldy, humidity should be avoided. Therefore, use containers with good breathability, such as sand pots. Ceramic pots, which can absorb water vapour in the air, should be avoided. In order to avoid the effects of wet weather, it is recommended not to stack containers up against walls or directly on the ground.

3. Store at room temperature.

As a slight-fermented tea, white tea is sensitive to the temperature. Too cold will affect the enzyme activity and make the aging slow down. Thus, white tea does not need to be refrigerated –the temperature can range from 0 to 30°C. However, significant changes in temperature should be avoided too.

4. Avoid storing it among things with mussy odours.

Tea can absorb different sorts of odour extremely easily; therefore, it should not be stored alongside anything strong-smelling.

5. Store different types of teas separately.

Such as white tea should be stored separately with pu’er tea.
