2013 Aged White Dragonball 老白茶龍珠

Type: da bai white

Origin: Fuding, Fujian

Known for its delicate taste, white tea is harvested before the tea plant’s leaves have fully opened. The young buds are still covered by fine white hairs, giving it its appearance.

The photos show the tea liquor and leaves at a young age. After aging as loose leaf for three years, they are compressed into ball-shaped teas by hand. It tastes of floral honey, with a viscous and smooth texture. 

Cultivated from the birthplace of white tea, this white tea is the lowest in caffeine compared to other varieties. 

6 dragonball, each ~6g. 

Brewing Tips:

100 ml using 98 Celsius (208F) water. Start with 20 second infusions. Alternatively, boil over the stovetop for a more robust infusion and darker tea liquor.
