Dehong Snow Phoenix
White Tea
Dehong, Yunnan, China
$16/ 40g
A delicious white tea with notes of taste notes of rosemary, hay, & wildflowers.
Sprung from the loamy slopes of Dehong, the western extremity of the Yunnan province, this ‘Snow Phoenix’ is produced solely from the handpicked unopened buds of the tea plant's new flush growth. In similar fashion to its cousin, Silver Needle, the extreme discretion in harvesting only the newest sprouts on the plants instills something soft, aromatic, and rife with nutrients. In the words of Lohas, the production team behind this, they are a “dyed in the wool traditionalist” with an eye for “quality, rather than quantity,” and this tea is produced without agrochemicals or herbicides.
