2021 White Peony Square
Harvested and produced in the village of Xian Pu situated at the southwest side of Fu Ding city in Fu Jian province, China. The area features high forest coverage and biodiversity. Tea plantations are loosly managed amoung natural forest and features. A sub-tropical monsoon climate leads to mild winters and summers with sufficient light and rainfall. Tea plantations are scattered across mountains that are ranging from 600-750m in altitude.
This white peony is harvested and produced in 2021 spring using freshly harvested buds and leaves. The dry leaves present a greyish green colour profile, where intact leaves and stems can be observed. The infusion transitions from a light yellow to a golden yellow colour over infusions. It presents a light and fresh mouthfeel that resembles spring water, with hint of recurring floralness and sweetness. The compressed form make it ideal for travelling and storage. Each pie serves one or two seperate servings depending on size of the teaware used.
For aging and storage, seal the tea packaging with a proper clip and store within a container that will conceal it from light, moisture and odors. Store in somewhere cool and dry, avoid any cross contamination with other smells.
