位於中國福建省東北角的沿海城市福鼎,是白茶的故鄉,也是白茶商業化的發源地。

在福鼎郊外的山丘上,茶園裡種滿了名為「大白」的特殊茶樹品種。這個名字名副其實。這些茶樹長出肥厚的芽苞,覆蓋著濃密的絨毛。植株將養分儲存在芽苞中,因為這是茶樹的未來。在細小的銀針內部,含有額外的糖分、多酚類物質,甚至還有更多的咖啡因。那層絨毛由絨毛體組成,幫助未成熟的芽苞在嚴酷的環境中存活。在茶農細心手工採摘這些芽苞後,大多數製茶師會將芽苞放入茶倉中,讓它們慢慢乾燥。

這款帶有細膩甜味的茶,可以直接用茶杯品飲,也可以像中國人那樣,舀一匙茶葉放入裝有熱水的透明玻璃杯中。看著芽苞在水中緩緩下沉,這個過程非常療癒。

Isabella ★★★★★

First steep smells like fresh hay and warm honey, and the liquor is so pale it almost looks like water — but the sweetness lingers on the tongue for minutes. I’ve been brewing the same leaves three times today and each cup stays delicate instead of turning bitter.

Samuel V. ★★★★★

The dry leaves are so downy and silvery, just as the name says. Steeped it for a few minutes and the liquor is pale and delicate, with that sweet, grassy note you hope for from Fuding. It’s a little slice of that coastal region in my cup, very calming.
