Snow Bud

An exquisite Chinese white tea crafted from the youngest leaves.

This dewy white tea from Anhui Province in China owes its youthful taste to the meticulous process of picking a bud and the youngest two leaves from each tea bush. The result is a beautiful silver-green style of leaf, yielding a crystalline sweetness with smooth notes of cantaloupe melon.

To preserve the delicate taste of the young silver buds and downy green leaves, white tea undergoes very little processing. Unlike green teas which are steamed or fired to cut short the oxidation process, the freshly picked leaves are simply left to dry, either under the sun or inside for better control of temperature and humidity. As a result, the leaves experience some light oxidation, highlighting their soft sweetness and muting the greener, grassier flavours you might associate with a green tea.

The minimal processing allows the leaves to retain a large proportion of their natural antioxidants. White tea is known to be high in the antioxidant EGCG, reputed to rejuvenate the skin and relax the body. It's ideal if you're feeling a bit worse for wear.
