2024 Yueguangbai White Tea from Wild Forest, stone-pressed cake

CN¥46.00 Sale Save

Harvest 2024 has the full fresh flavor of the spring season, with an initial sugary hue given by a very dry harvest, even dryer than the year 2023. This resulted in an even greater scarcity of young buds and leaves, which allowed us to produce and press a very limited number of cakes.

The enduring persistence of our wild forest tea trees gifted us a complex flavor, enriched by a fragrant floral bouquet and a unique mineral aftertaste, which complement the typical gentle mouthfeel and underforest hues of Nannuo local cultivar.

This intense sweetness will keep developing over the years to come, unfolding new unexpected notes of flavor as the chameleonic experience of white tea aging goes forward.

Our tea production

This tea comes from the tea forest we own in Yunnan, in Nannuo and Lunan/Pasha mountain.
We take care of each leg of the production: from the care of the under-forest until package and distribution.

Generations of masters

Our production is entirely supervised by Yan Kunli, that was born and raised on Nannuo mountain, and in 2007 won the Pu'er Shengpu producer competition for the highest Shaqing skills, among all the Hani minority in Yunnan. He is the master in his craft, and we are proud to have him with us.
