Historically compressed teas were produced particularly for border trades at remote areas, for example southwest of China. Tea cake processing “transforms” the properties of tea to some extent and enhances its “adaptability” for long distance transportation. New-born white tea cake is slightly fermented. The compressed form also allows the inherent characters of tea to be “preserved” for long term development. Given favorable conditions, white tea cake will undergo naturally fermentation with physical and chemical transformation at a sustainable pace as time goes by.
Fuding White Tea on the ziplock bag was registered as national certification mark of origin in 2005, which our supplier, one of the 54 (2013 record) companies, is authorized to use.
We’re a Swedish-Chinese tea company specialized in limited organic Chinese tea, especially premium white tea. We offer worldwide delivery and share tea knowledge, experience as well as inspiration through both company website and offline events (e.g. tea tasting, tea tour).
We hand source our teas directly from the organic farms around Taimu Mountain in Fuding (northeastern Fujian Province, China). Nurtured by the unique geographic and climatic conditions, Fuding tea is considered to the ideal white tea variety due to its tippy and bold terminal buds. Additionally, our Fuding white variety is produced using only the traditional tea processing techniques unique to white teas.
White tea is distinguished from other types of teas for its rarity, minimal post-picking processing and lauded health benefits. Under favorable conditions, its value is increased by time as enzymes within the tea itself continue to develop and evolve. As the Chinese saying goes, “one year as tea, three years as medicine and seven years as treasure”. Aged white tea is highly appreciated for its enriched flavor and a further development of its formidable health benefits.
