Rich in polyphenols and catechins, beneficial for cardiovascular and liver health

White Peony, also known as Bai Mudan in Chinese. Named for its resemblance to the petals of the peony flower, this tea has been cherished for centuries for its delicate flavor and health benefits. White Peony is crafted from the plucking of young tea buds and the topmost tender leaves, typically harvested in early spring. These leaves are withered naturally under the sun or in carefully controlled indoor conditions, allowing them to retain their natural freshness and subtle flavor which undergoes minimal oxidation.

Historically, White Peony was reserved for Chinese royalty and nobility due to its rarity and exquisite qualities. Over time, its popularity spread, and today it is enjoyed worldwide for its mild, sweet flavor and numerous health benefits attributed to its high antioxidant content.
