2016 Shou Mei Aged White

2016 Shou Mei Aged White Tea is a Fujian-grown white tea from old tea trees that are 1200 years old. This tea was lovingly crafted from naturally withered upper leaf and tips, the tea is hand rolled into delightful reddened and browned tea “balls” that slowly unfurl as they steep.

The aging process develops a smooth and sweet character for our Shou Mei; its aroma is fruity and enticing. Once steeped, you will admire the meditative unfurling of the leaves as they release an amber liquor with a sweet Chinese dried date aroma. At first sip, you will taste a flavour reminiscent of lighter oolong teas with notes of amber honey and Chinese dates. You may continue to top off your tea ball for multiple steeps to full enjoy your Shou Mei Aged White Tea.
