This white tea comes from a spring 2024 harvest 1 bud + 2 leaves. This is the second commercialized production of the young producer and “tea maker” Lucas Ben-Moura. Tea plants have been flourishing since 2018 on the Terrasses de l'Arrieulat in the heart of the Pyrenees.
The proximity of the surrounding forests, the humid area below and the altitude create conditions conducive to the slow and concentrated growth of young shoots bringing sweetness and fresh woody and fruity notes into the cup characterizing the entire production of Lucas Ben-Moura.
The cup of this vintage is characterized by supple tannins, vegetal notes, softness and a fresh fruity background, making a thirst-quenching tea that you can forget in your teapot, it will never become bitter, and that you can infuse several times.
Prefer a preparation with gong fu cha , leaving 2-3 min during the first passage of water, then extend the time by 1-2 min over each passage.
Also discover its version resulting from finer picking 1 bud + 1 leaf, the Early white tea , as well as its Bough tea , which is an interpretation of yellow tea with sweet and woody notes.
