Japanese organic oolong tea with a floral fragrance and smoked aroma
$12.96 / 70 g
White tea from Fujian Province, China
The leaves of Shou Mei are plucked later than Baihao Yinzhen. It is produced in a large amount compared to other kinds of white tea. High-quality tea leaves are hairy and fluffy. It is called Shou Mei, known as Long Noble Life Eyebrow, due to its thin and crescent-shaped leaves that resemble eyebrows of the elderly.
TASTING NOTES
A pleasantly full-bodied, floral, slightly sweet, refreshing tea with a flavor and character that lingers on the palate. There is no astringency and it is light and refreshing. It is a far more intense, robust and heavier tea than the Baihao Yinzen and less sweet than the Bai Mudan.

STEP 1) Warm your teapot. Pour boiling water into a gaiwan or teapot, let it sit for a little while, then discard all the water.
STEP 2) Rinse the tea leaves. Fill your pot with tea leaves in a 3g/100ml ratio, pour boiling water on it and empty it right away. Rinsing should be as quick as possible.
STEP 3) Brew. Pour boiling water on the tea leaves and brew for 30 seconds.
STEP 4) Serve. Pour the tea into a pitcher, and then into cups.
STEP 5) Brew again.
❖ For the second infusion, steep it for about half the time of the first infusion. For every other infusion after that increase the steeping time (from the time of the first infusion).
❖ Make sure to open the lid of the teapot between infusions, to prevent the leaves from cooking.
❖ This is how we recommend brewing this tea, but we all have our preferences, so try experimenting to find the way you like it the most.

It's good white tea, somewhat mellow with a mix of oxidized parts on the leaf. I have a feeling that this tea could really go for some age, perhaps 3 to 30 years if I forget I have it. Given time it should naturally oxidize and become deeper in flavor, so I put everything in the paper box I got with my first teapot purchase and I'm going to just forget I have it for a few years and come back when it's transformed into an aged white tea. I may also start acquiring wooden cigar boxes and box up teas from certain years to age.
