This sweet and mild white tea is made from unopened tea buds and the two newest leaves to sprout. Freshly harvested leaves are allowed to dry in the sun, and the natural oxidation that occurs gives Pai Mu Tan beautiful and complex flavours. Floral aromas of fruit blossoms combine with clean fruit flavours, sweet melon and a well-rounded finish to make this a favourite of tea-lovers.

Also known as White Peony in reference to the tea's delicate, white appearance, Pai Mu Tab tea is grown in the Fujian Province of China. White teas are known as the least processed of all tea types, which help to retain the natural flavours and aroma. Leaves are plucked when they are still covered in fine white hairs, before being sun-dried (unlike other tea types, white teas are not fermented or oxidized).

Customer Reviews (4.8 / 5 · 4 reviews)

Lily X. ★★★★★

Every sip has that soft sweetness from the sun-drying process, and the buds give it such a clean, mild finish. I've been brewing it lightly and the flavor stays gentle even as it cools, which is a nice change from my usual green teas.

Violet V. ★★★★★

The buds and leaves make such a delicate cup—it's sweet without being cloying. I love how the natural drying process gives it that subtle, hay-like undertone.

Henry O. ★★★★★

I was curious how the sun-drying process would affect the taste, and the buds and two newest leaves really do give it that delicate, mild profile. It's become my go-to for a calming afternoon cup.
