To make this tea well, we recommend you use a large volume of leaf and infuse for a long time in tepid 70°C water.

This succulent white tea is composed of the tea buds and two lower leaves. Picked and processed in Fuding, in Fujian Province, China, it undergoes natural, slow ambient drying. This makes the tea soothing and gentle on even the weakest stomachs. Drink it any time of day or night.
