WHITE TEA: Early Spring Snow Buds, China

Early Spring Snow Buds
White tea, China

Flavour: sweet citrus, summer hay ~ light-bodied
A special, early Spring white tea harvested from mid-February to mid-March 2025 in Simao, Yunnan province. This tea is made entirely of the freshest, plumpest, downy leaf buds. After harvest, they are lightly heated, rolled and air-dried. 

When infused, these leaves release delicate notes of summer hay and lemon meringue pie. The tea is light in body with a gorgeously-soft mouthfeel.  

Infusions: specialty tea leaves can all be steeped at least twice, and often more, so each 3 gram serve (150 mls - a standard teacup size), will give you two cups ('infusions') if you steep the leaves twice. On the back of your pouch under 'Steep', you can find the number of infusions for your tea.

If you infuse your leaves at least twice, your pouch will give you the following cups of tea (or more if you infuse your leaves more times):

50 grams - 33 cups
100 grams - 66 cups
200 grams - 133 cups
