Description
A high-mountain Yunnan large-leaf white tea from Menghai, gently infused with the warm floral sweetness of locally produced golden osmanthus. The spring harvest white tea comes from a misty, high-elevation garden (1700m), where slower growth and frequent clouds help build richer inner compounds—resulting in a rounder, sweeter, more mellow cup. To add fragrance without overpowering the tea, this batch uses a traditional scenting method: fresh golden osmanthus blossoms harvested in autumn from Lijiang, Yunnan are blended with the tea so the leaves fully absorb the blossoms’ aroma. The result is a classic “tea carries the flower’s scent, and the flower lifts the tea’s taste” balance—elegant, comforting, and easy to love. The tea was pressed into mini coins in mid-October (Oct 18–20), a format that helps preserve aroma, keeps the tea clean and stable, and supports gradual flavor evolution over time. Each coin is 5g, perfect for a standard gaiwan or teapot. It’s especially ideal for office days, travel, and anyone new to white tea who wants a friendly, aromatic entry point. In the cup, the liquor is clear and bright. You’ll taste the clean, refreshing smoothness of white tea layered with a honeyed, cozy osmanthus warmth. The finish lingers with gentle sweetness and soft floral aftertaste.
