Studies have shown that high quality white tea is the healthest tea, because it contains the most EGCG (catechins) and quercetin. Both have been studied extensively. Quercetin has been found to have powerful Anti-inflammatory properties.

The most popular white tea from our tea field. Each tea "leaf" contains two leaves and one bud. The taste is very smooth and delicate with lots of savory undertones that everyone loves so much!

"Every time that I go to our tea field on Tai Mu Mountain, it takes a long time to get to the field because it is such a secluded area and does not have a direct road. After a long car ride up the mountain, I have to walk almost 30 minutes on a tiny path to get to the tea field. In addition to growing tea on Tai Mu Mountain, some farmers also grow herbs that Chinese doctors come and pick to use in herbal medicine. I see these herbs on my trek to the tea field and i like the smell."
