We have aged the 2020 white tea for years in an oxygen-free environment, resulting in a unique sweet flavor.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n    The tea is made from one bud and one leaf harvested from natural tea gardens at an altitude of 2000m in Yunnan Province. By storing the 2019 white tea for several years, we have enhanced its sweet flavor through aging.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\n    Aging Bai Mu Dan in Oxygen-Free Environment\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n    In 2019, we produced more Bai Mu Dan than planned, so we decided to store part of the batch in an oxygen-free environment for several years instead of selling it as new tea.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\n    Sweet Flavor Like Sweet Potatoes\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n    Through aging, the tea has developed a sweet flavor reminiscent of sweet potatoes, chestnuts, and brown sugar.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n    If you drink this tea without prior knowledge, you might think it is a black tea rather than a white tea.

Like fruits and vegetables, the higher the altitude, the better the quality. In this respect, the 2000m tea garden is ideal in terms of altitude.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n    In this area, the tea trees are not pruned to be low like in Japanese or Fujian tea gardens. Each tea tree is left to grow naturally, and some trees are as tall as the roof of a house.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n    \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0526\/0774\/6224\/files\/IMG_9880.jpg\"\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"A person among tea trees on a hillside\" sizes=\"(max-width: 630px) 100vw, 630px\" height=\"420\" width=\"630\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0526\/0774\/6224\/files\/IMG_9880.jpg\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6749\" loading=\"lazy\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n    Old tea trees without fertilizers grow slowly, and because the number of leaves is small, the cell density is high, resulting in a soft taste and a rich aftertaste.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\n    Best to Wait a Few Days After Opening Aged Tea\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n    Like wine, aged tea develops better flavor if you wait a few days (at least one day) after opening it before drinking.
