White Peony – Tea of the day

By Robin | February 4, 2009

Adagio tea has a wonderful white tea  called “white peony.”  It has a delicate flavor that is lightly sweet. I highly recommend it.

White Peony White tea from the Fujian province of China. White Peony, known locally as Pai Mu Tan, is a delicate tea made from tea buds collected and withered prior to opening. The latest medical findings suggest that white tea may be a more effective cancer fighter than even green tea. These findings have brought white teas to a much wider audience. If you are beginning your exploration of white tea, our “White A’ Cappella” tea will serve a wonderful introduction.
