This is a small "waffle" cake pressing of 2022 Spring harvested Bai Mu Dan plucking. Each cake is pressed into a waffle-like shape that is convenient for breaking apart by hand. Each mini cake is 80 grams. Fuding is the home to three famous teas. Bai Hao Yin Zhen (Silver Needles), Bai Lin Hong Cha (aka Golden Monkey), and Bai Mu Dan (aka White Peony). Fuding area teas enjoy fair weather and rich loamy soil giving them a special sweet and fruity quality. Our "White Peony" is harvested from first flush of Spring harvested tea. The taste is sweet and fruity, with very little astringency. We recommend brewing with 100C water gong fu style to get the best taste from this wonderful tea! Due to the tight compression we recommend long steeps at first and/or using a knife or pick to separate a piece into several smaller pieces.
