The new 2021 harvest is here!
The Wu Family's Shou Mei is picked from mature wild-arbor Da Bai varietal tea bushes on their high-elevation biodiverse plot. Their generously downy Shou Mei is a combination of young leaves and buds. This year's 2021 harvest includes some small fuzzy buds alongside the mature late spring leaves, brewing up balanced and refreshing - great both for sipping all afternoon or enjoying as a cold brew iced tea.
