Shou Mei Bingcha 2021

Shoumei is a white tea that is processed even later than Baimudan from older, larger leaves. Shoumei is very cheap when fresh, but is better suited to storage than other white teas. This good quality Shoumei was pressed into cake form just like Pu Er. Like Sheng Pu Er, white tea is withered and sun-dried for a long time, but white teas are not fired nor rolled, and they differ by the plant varieties used and by the locations in which they are grown, hence also by climatic differences. These are factors which have a significant impact on the tea's taste.
