WHITE PEONY

A classic white tea from Fujian, covered in a sweet, snow-white fuzz.

Price range: 35,00 zł through 120,00 zł

White Peony (Bai Mu Dan) is a traditional white tea from the Chinese province of Fujian. You could say it’s the older sister of Silver Needle—while Silver Needle consists of standalone tea buds, White Peony includes a bud along with a young leaf (or two, in the case of lower-quality tea). What does this mean for us? Primarily, it offers a more mature, fuller flavor, rich in woody and honey notes, with a much more substantial body.

Our White Peony features exceptionally young buds and leaves, still covered in a rich silvery fuzz. This adds a pleasant sweetness to the floral, herbal, and woody brew. It comes from the true home of this tea, northern Fujian—not some experimental blend, but a genuine classic. Every fellow lover of White Peony with whom we shared this tea was overjoyed. We have nothing more to add—it’s the best Bai Mu Dan we’ve had the pleasure of tasting. Give it a try!

Our impressions

Szymon

Nothing smells like a fresh Bai Mu Dan.

 

Antoni

It is said that a good Bai Mudan is recognized by the presence of three colors: green, white, and brown. I’ll tell you how to recognize an even better Bai Mudan: by the fact that there are almost no brown leaves at all; instead, the three colors consist of an intense, dark green of the youngest leaves , the light green of the mature ones, and the obligatory white of the buds and dense tea hairs. Before drinking, take a good look at the leaves; few teas are as beautiful. This is the freshest, greenest Bai Mudan I have ever seen.

Przed wypiciem dokładnie obejrzyj liście, mało która herbata jest tak piękna. To najświeższy, najbardziej zielony baimudan, jakiego widziałem w życiu.
