We are proud to offer a Certified Organic White Tea cake from Yunnan. This tea was grown in the area of Simao and was harvested in April. 

This "Moonlight White" White Tea (月光白) is a Chang Ye Bai Hao varietal growing at and altitude 1260 meters (4150 feet) near Mulihe Village on Wan Zhang Mountain (just west of Pu'Er City). The processing is typical, using "room temperature" air-drying (晾干). There is very little withering and when brewed the tea leaves have a green/yellow color.

The tea brews a golden yellow tea soup that is thick, full-bodied with a creamy viscous mouth-feel. The tea is sweet like sugarcane with hints of wheatgrass. There is a bit more vegetal character to this tea as compared to the Silver Needles White, giving this tea a bit more depth. This tea can be brewed 6 to 8 times gong fu style. 

Our Yunnan Sourcing Certified Organic teas are certified organic by EcoCert SA and are certified organic to international standards (EcoCert is IFOAM accredited).

Fantastic White Tea

"Great floral taste and strong wakeup tea"

Mitchell S. (5/5)

rather unique vanilla aroma

"Sweet, aroma reminds me of the ice cream soda soft drink (which has mostly vanilla flavor) + vegetal. Able to brew stronger if you like. From sample bag from a while back."

Learning tea

"This was my first ever tea purchase, Learning how to brew white tea was tough. and it really took me the full 300grams to learn how to brew it well. all over it has a very sweet taste to it 😋"

Dylan S. (5/5)

Superb yea

"An absolutely superb white needle tea. I have read excellent reviews of Yunnan Sourcing's teas and those reviews have been borne out by my experience with this order. The tea is subtle and delicate and is every bit as good as any white needle I've ever had. The only reason I didn't give it five stars is I had my heart set on a jasmine silver needle and they were all sold out. This was a "it'll do" put hase, but it is far better that that."
