Gong Mei White Tea is a great everyday tea with a robust flavour, reminiscent of honey and dark chocolate. You can use boiling water to brew it and it rarely gets bitter. 

Why we love it:

  • It has a robust flavour. "White tea" in general is thought to have light, delicate flavours but this is the third picking grade and comprises mostly larger leaves which yield a more robust flavour. 
  • It's great for ageing. You can keep it in your cupboard for years and it will still taste good!
  • It is minimally processed. As with all white teas, the leaves are simply withered and dried, so the quality of the plant itself really shines through.

Gong Mei White Tea handles hot temperatures well, without getting bitter.

These are just guidelines. As we always say, it’s best to experiment with a range of temperatures and leaf-to-water ratios to understand the tea and your own taste preferences.
