Meaning: "U Vân" evokes the quiet, profound beauty of the flavour; "Wild" affirms its origin in tea trees growing naturally deep in the forest.
Tea type: White tea – hand-pressed cake.
Raw material standard: rigorously selected to the rule of "one bud and one or two young leaves".
Character: a perfect balance between the purity of the bud and the full body and lingering sweetness of the young leaves, giving a more layered flavour than bud-only grades.
From the world's foremost and oldest white tea region.
The mountain forest soils of Ningde let the leaves accumulate an abundant mineral content and the region's distinctive natural herbal flavour.
This cake is over 10 years old – a genuine treasure among tea drinkers.
Transformation: after a decade of natural storage, the cooling nature of white tea gradually gives way to a warming one, while its medicinal value and flavour rise markedly.
Firmly pressed, which helps the tea keep better over time and makes it convenient to store or give as a gift.
Aroma: clearly transformed towards dried herbs, a faint scent of forest blossom and, above all, the sober note of ancient wood.
Taste: mellow and thick in the mouth, with a deep sweetness like ripe forest honey. Through the later infusions the sweetness grows ever lighter and more enduring.
Liquor colour: a pale gold turning to an alluring shimmer.
