About Bai Mu Dan

Bai Mu Dan, also known as White Peony Tea, is one of the most renowned varieties of white tea. The name ‘White Peony’ represents the elegance and delicacy of this tea. Unlike other white teas that often use only the buds, Bai Mu Dan is distinguished by the combination of both leaf and bud, giving it a richer and fuller flavour.

Cultivation

This organic Bai Mu Dan is sourced from the renowned tea gardens of Wo Kan Shan in Yunnan, China. The tea is carefully hand-picked as early as March, selecting only the top two leaves and a young bud to ensure the highest quality and intense flavour. The subtropical climate and fertile soils of the Wo Kan Shan region provide ideal conditions for cultivating premium tea plants. Leaves and buds are gently sun-dried to best preserve their natural aromas and valuable nutrients.

Effects

White tea is valued for its gentle effects and numerous health benefits. It is characterised by its mild aromas and low caffeine content, making it a soothing yet invigorating choice. Rich in antioxidants, particularly polyphenols, white tea can help reduce cellular damage and support heart health. The anti-inflammatory properties of the tea strengthen the immune system and contribute to overall well-being. Additionally, white tea can promote skin health and provide a calming effect on the body.

How to enjoy

Enjoy this Organic White Peony Bai Mu Dan in the late morning or early afternoon. Its delicate yet complex flavour pairs beautifully with light snacks such as figs, melons, or mild cheeses.
