Forest Wild White Broom Tea | 荒野掃把白茶 Tasting notes: Wet forest, nutty, sweet Origin: Fuding, Fujian, China Cultivar: Wild Elevation: 900-140m Oxidation: ⦿○○○○These "brooms" consist of a variety of white tea leaves bunched together to make it easy to dunk in hot water, just like a teabag. Think of it as a wild, eco-friendly version of a teabag. What we love about it: It's easy to brew: just dunk a broom into your mug or teapot with hot water and pull it out by it's string, like you would a teabag. Each broom can be re-brewed 3-4 times. It's wild: the leaves are harvested from wild tea trees in the forests of Fuding, Fujian. In this biodiverse environment, the plants are nourished by richer soils, giving more layers of flavour to the tea. It's as close to natural as you get: not only do the tea trees grow in an environment with minimal human intervention, the tea itself is minimally processed. After harvesting, the leaves and buds are gently spread out on bamboo mats to wither and slowly dry in the shade for several days before being bunched together and packaged. Each broom has a variety of leaves, with sweet and delicate white buds to mature leaves with deep flavours, so you get a much fuller-flavoured cup of tea. What is wild tea?
