High-Altitude Ancient Tree Pure Material

All white tea leaves are sourced exclusively from pure ancient trees growing at high altitudes (白茶茶青全部取自高海拔以上的纯种古茶树). The high-altitude environment with cool climate, morning and evening cloud cover, and short average sunlight hours (正因为海拔高气候冷凉，早晚云雾笼罩，平均日照短) creates ideal conditions for producing exceptional white tea.

Reduced Bitterness, Enhanced Sweetness

The high-altitude cool climate causes tea tree buds and leaves to contain reduced levels of catechins and other bitter compounds (导致茶树芽叶中所含"儿茶素"类等苦涩成分降低). This natural reduction in bitterness is accompanied by increased levels of theanine and soluble nitrogen, which enhance the sweet and fragrant mouthfeel (进而增加了"茶氨酸"和"可溶氮"的香甜口感).

10 Years of Natural Aging

After 10 years of natural aging since 2016, this white tea has developed remarkable depth, smoothness, and medicinal properties. Aged white tea is highly valued in traditional Chinese medicine for its cooling, anti-inflammatory, and wellness-promoting qualities.
