About this Product
We call it a white tea because of the downy white tips it produces although technically it is a green tea. There is nothing about this tea that isn’t beautiful, special and rare. Maofeng is a term in tea manufacture denoting the picking of a bud and two leaves of equal length. Mao Feng tea leaves have a broad, curved and flat shape. It is considered one of the choicest shapes of tea leaf.
Ingredients
