2019 Fuding Shou Mei Aged White Tea Cake | Bamboo Tray Sun-Dried | 300g Compressed

2019 Fuding Shou Mei Aged White Tea Cake — Bamboo Tray Sun-Dried, 300g

Sourced from the misty highlands of Panxi Town, Fuding City, Fujian Province — the heartland of authentic Chinese white tea — this 2019 Shou Mei cake is a testament to the art of traditional sun-drying on bamboo trays (zhú biǎn rì shài). Pressed into a 300g compressed cake, it carries the unhurried wisdom of time.

Tasting Notes

Steep a few leaves and watch the liquor bloom into a warm amber gold. The aroma opens with dried longan and aged wood, giving way to a smooth, mellow body with a natural sweetness and a lingering floral finish. Each sip deepens as the cake continues to age gracefully in your collection.

Why Bamboo Tray Sun-Drying?

Unlike machine-dried white teas, this Shou Mei is processed using the time-honored bamboo tray sun-drying method — allowing the leaves to wither and dry slowly under natural sunlight. This preserves the full spectrum of enzymes and polyphenols, creating a tea that transforms beautifully with age.
