2019·Shou Mei Tea Cake

Ingredients: 2019 Shou Mei
Specifications: 357g/cake/box

Series Introduction: The raw materials are carefully selected from Grade 1 Shoumei of 2019, sourced from Zhenghe Da Bai (Zhenghe Large White Tea) and Fu'an Da Bai (Fu'an Large White Tea) in Zhenghe's origin. It undergoes 72 hours of extreme withering, natural sun-drying, and 3 years of dry storage before being loosely pressed into shape. Beyond its drinking value, it also boasts collection significance. As time passes, its downy aroma becomes richer, and honey notes deeper, with quality and taste complementing each other perfectly.


Tea Characteristics: When brewed, Shoumei exudes an elegant and rich aroma, with clear and refreshing liquor. A sip reveals a distinct sweetness and a strong penetrating sensation; the mellow liquor with a lingering aftertaste perfectly satisfies the tongue's craving for sweetness and smoothness—that’s the charm of Shoumei.
