WHITE TEA 白茶
White tea is one of the rarest and most expensive tea as the tea leaves are mostly collected once a year. The farmers harvest young tea blossoms when the leaves are still firmly packed. It undergoes minor processing where the buds and leaves are simply dried without frying or kneading. Therefore, it keeps the white furry hairs that determine the quality of the white tea intact. In China, it is considered to be rather a ‘medicine’ than a delicious beverage, as it builds strong resistance which helps our bodies fight bacteria and improve the immune system.
