About this tea
White Moonlight is a crowd-pleasing white tea. Its delicate sweetness and floral complexity recall cutting into a fresh apricot.
The loose leaves have been pressed into a bar of premeasured squares, making this tea easy to prepare and uniquely portable. Just break off a square and add hot water!
White Moonlight is a cultivar of Camellia Assamica produced in the highlands of Lincang, Yunnan at an altitude of 1500m. Only the tender bud and two leaves are picked, ensuring exceptional quality. Take a close look at our bar, and you’ll see the silvery buds peeking through the darker leaves.
Minimal processing and low oxidation preserve this tea's natural freshness. The dry leaves offer a warm apricot scent and brew into a light golden liquor. The tea offers notes of fresh stonefruit, honey, and a subtle floral complexity. Each sip brings a velvety sweetness that gently fades, leaving a clean and uplifting finish. Drinking White moonlight reminds us of a refreshing walk on a warm spring night when all the honeysuckle is blooming.
Drink on its own for a refreshing cup, or pair it with light desserts such as pastries and mild cheeses. This tea is well-suited to newer tea drinkers and makes for a great gift.
This selection was produced without pesticides or chemical fertilizers and harvested in April 2024.
