China Shou Mei

A perfect tea for those new to the white tea family. Shou Mei “Longevity Eyebrow” white is a bolder tasting brew, due to using the lower down leaves which are more mature and thus more rich in fruity flavors rather than the more common floral tones. These leaves are simply withered and develop a variety of colors rang ing from white, black, green, and burnt umber. Compare this with White Peony, and Silver Needle teas to see the difference the age of leaves makes in a cup.
