Description

There is an old saying about Fuding white tea: “one-year tea, three-year medicine, seven-year treasure”. The leaves for this shou mei cake were harvested in 2016 and pressed into a cake in 2018; following several years of aging, the aroma, taste, and essential quality of this tea are continually changing. Because this cake is older than our 2018 shou mei, it has more of a light medicinal fragrance rather than the 2018’s bright pekoe.

 

The first sensation upon tasting this tea is the sweetness of the liquid, which follows through into the aftertaste. The tea leaves spread and expand throughout subsequent steeps and pour more of their essential substances into the liquid, resulting in a mellower brew later on – but even as the flavor fades, that sweetness remains until the end.
