This exceptional white tea is harvested in spring from ancient Shan (Camellia Sinensis var. Assamica) tea trees that grow in Pu Ta Leng, high in the Hoàng Liên Sơn mountain range. These majestic trees, thriving at elevations above 2200 metres, are nurtured by the crisp mountain air and mineral-rich soils, producing leaves that embody the purity of their environment.

Carefully handpicked at their peak, the tender buds and two young leaves showcase the unique characteristics of the Shan varietal—robust yet delicate, with a natural resilience shaped by centuries of growth in these pristine highlands. The tea offers a harmony of delicate floral notes, subtle sweetness, and a touch of mountain mist, reflecting the serene beauty of its origins.

The brew reveals a clear, pale liquor that carries the soothing energy and timeless elegance of Pu Ta Leng’s ancient trees. Every sip is a tribute to the heritage and purity of Shan ancient tea tree.

Producing White tea

Picking -> Withering -> Drying
Aged White Tea: A Rising Trend Since around 2012, aged white tea has gained popularity for its unique flavour profile. As it ages, the tea develops a smoother, more complex taste, making it highly sought after—and increasingly expensive—among tea enthusiasts.

White tea storage

White tea isn't fired, so its enzymes stay active. In a humid environment, the tea can age and develop richer flavors over time. For those wanting to preserve its original taste, store it in a cool, dry place in an airtight container.
