Description

A fundamental white tea

Crafted exclusively from delicate, fine buds, this Grand Cru represents China's most celebrated white tea and ranks among its most nuanced expressions. These silver needles are gathered from Cang Yuan, situated on Mount Mang Bai, and originate from the celebrated Da Bai Hao cultivar.

A layered and refined Chinese white tea in which floral, fruity and vegetal characteristics blend across an exceptional oily mouthfeel.

This tea is produced under organic cultivation practices and carries certification from an authorised independent verification organisation.
