2025 Spring Shui Xian White Tea

This white tea, or "Bai Cha" of the Shui Xian cultivar, is a special tea crafted by the family-owned farm where we source our Dancong Oolong.  This tea is minimally processed - it is not roasted, or rolled, and the large, beautiful leaves are immediately left out to dry. Boasting a honey-yellow liquor, tea is forward with honey-orchid flavors. Light, refreshing, and sweet, this tea is quickly becoming a fan favorite.

We hope you enjoy this special tea!
