Brief
If you are a lover of white tea, be sure to taste this white tea from Yunnan. It is very different from the famous white tea in Fujian. It is made of tea from a hundred year old tree. Yunnan’s high altitude and unique geological characteristics make it have a different aroma. It is sweet and delicious, full of mellowness. This tea has not been roasted at high temperature, and the tea leaves maintain their active nature. As time goes, it will also turn to mild.In terms of price, it is cheaper than Fujian white tea. This is a tea we highly recommend.
Origin
Mengku Town is located in Shuangjiang County, Lincang City, Yunnan Province. The terrain is high in the north and low in the south. Mengku has a subtropical mountain monsoon climate, which is characterized by wet and dry seasons, with large temperature difference between day and night. The annual average temperature is 18°C. The annual average sunshine hours are 2,400 hours. And the annual average precipitation in mountainous areas is 1,800 mm. This climate is very suitable for tree growing.
Material selection
Dew Crystal is made of Yunnan Mengku large-leaf species as raw materials which is from 100-year-old tree of Mengku large leaf species. With rich content, the leaves have very characteristic aroma. It has great potential for long time storage. The taste will become better while aging.
Manufacture
This tea is a slightly fermented tea. The processing of white tea is simple. The cell wall of the tea is not broken, so the effective substances such as caffeine and tea polyphenols in the tea are precipitated slowly.
The white tea is famous of the wild and natural fragrance of tea leaves. Like Pu’er raw tea (sheng cha), the white tea made from Yunnan large-leaf species has not been roasted at high temperature, and the tea leaves maintain their active nature. As time goes, it will also turn to mild.

Wild Rose –
This is the best white tea I have tried. I like it more than the Fuding white which is much more famous. It has a great taste of nature and special aroma.

This tea was very sweet and made me warm. I felt it had energy maybe because it was from 100 year old trees with kind of secret power.
Claudia –
This one is clean, pure sweetness (it’s surprising how sweet a tea without sugar can be) with very little fresh and floral notes. The infusion is well balanced, no matter which steep you’re tasting. This is a good tea especially it has such a price.
