White Peony (also known as Pai Mu Tan), is a sweet, delicate and mild tea. It is made from the unopened tea buds, as well as the two newest leaves from the tea plant. The freshly harvested leaf is withered and dried in the sun and the natural oxidation which takes place during this process gives White Peony its beautiful, plush flavours. It has a warm, floral, fruit blossoms aroma and the liquor is light golden colour.
If you are just beginning to explore white teas, or even loose leaf teas in general, White Peony tea will serve as a wonderful introduction.

I hope your journey into the fascinating world of tea is as rewarding for you as it has been for me. I have lived in Asian countries for almost thirty years-spending twenty five in Thailand, and almost five years in Taiwan. I recently relocated to Australia, where I hope to continue to promote and sell Chinese and herbal teas.
