brewing-information Description

Our Chinese Mutan White Tea is an unusual tea, comprised of silvery, downy buds and green leaves. The buds are hand picked before the leaf opens, then gently steamed.

The brew is delicate and mellow, with a light pale color. Due to the larger leaf size, more leaves per cup are needed when brewing.

brewing-information  Brewing Information

Brewing Tips: Our China Mutan White tea should be made with cold, filtered water that has been brought to a boil and then allowed to cool for 1.5 to 2 minutes (175° F). Using one rounded teaspoon of loose tea or one teabag for each cup required, pour the boiling water over the tea leaves. China Mutan White tea should be steeped for 2-3 minutes. Once the ideal brewing time has been reached, the tea leaves should be removed to prevent further steeping. Decant and enjoy this delicious Chinese white tea!

    I first ordered this in the early 1990s and fell in love with it. (Back then, it was just called "China White Tea", no "Mutan" in the name.) I thought it was an interesting oddity; prior to that, I'd never heard of white tea, so I thought it might be interesting. I found it to be delicious, with a very delicate flavor but distinctive flavor.

    I have been ordering for the last seven years, probably longer, and settled only for China Mutan White for its refreshing flavor.

    My introduction to white tea and still my favorite. I Don't know how long I've been ordering this tea; something over 20 years. It's still at the top of my list! Smooth, mellow and just right for for an afternoon break with a shortbread cookie.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    How long does it take for my order to ship?

    We strive to ship orders within 2-3 days of receipt. However, due to the handcrafted nature of our products, combined with inventory limitations, some orders may take longer to ship. If there is a significant delay in shipping your order, we will contact you directly with details.

    Are your teas cultivated naturally? Are they Organic?

    All our teas are sourced from tea estates, suppliers and importers that we have personally worked with for decades and many for generations! We only purchase teas that have been cultivated naturally, devoid of pesticides and growth agents.

    Teas that have the term “Organic” in the products name have gone through additional certification by the country or origin and USFDA. Even though all our products are natural, we are unable to list them as Organic unless they have gone through these steps. Sometimes, this certification can be costly and time consuming for growers. Each country has different regulations, so many sell the teas to us without this extra labeling.

    How long does tea stay fresh?

    If sealed properly and stored away from extreme hot/cold temps and moisture, tea will stay as flavorful as the day you bought it, even after 18 months.

    How long should I brew my tea?

    Tea brewing times and water temperature can vary between tea varieties. Please consult this link to find the best method for your tea!
