About White Peony With Oolong
White Peony, also known as Bai Mudan, is a type of white tea that originates from the Fujian province in China. It is considered one of the classic and highly regarded white tea varieties. White Peony is made from the plucking of both the tea buds and the two leaves next to each bud. The tea undergoes minimal processing, which includes withering and drying, allowing the natural flavours and characteristics of the tea leaves to shine.
White Peony with Oolong is a blend that combines the delicate characteristics of White Peony (Bai Mudan), a white tea, with the more oxidized and nuanced flavors of Oolong tea. This combination creates a unique blend that may offer a balance of the floral and sweet notes of white tea with the complex, sometimes fruity or creamy qualities of Oolong.
