Tasting Notes:
Most people may have heard of white tea, but very few know about white tea seeds. White tea seeds are known as the "Hermès" in the white tea industry. It is a kind of white tea made from the fruits of wild tea trees over 50 years old in the high mountain production area of Fuding that have grown for at least 3 years, using the white tea production technique.

White tea seeds not only have a unique taste and aroma but also possess various health benefits. They are rich in antioxidants that can help the body resist the damage of free radicals, thus slowing down the aging process and preventing cardiovascular diseases such as hypertension and hyperlipidemia. There is also a unique component in white tea seeds called "tea polyphenols", which have strong antioxidant effects. They can scavenge free radicals in the body, delay aging, prevent cancer, and at the same time improve the body's immunity and enhance resistance.

①The picking and production process of white tea seeds is also very particular. Since the tea seeds grow on wild tea trees in the mountains, the picking is quite difficult, and only skilled tea farmers can pick high-quality tea seeds. During the production process, it goes through multiple steps such as sun-drying, stir-frying, and baking. Each step requires exquisite skills and experience. Therefore, the production cost of white tea seeds is high, and the price is relatively high as well.

② White tea seeds are extremely rare treasures in the tea market. Due to the special nature of their growth environment and the picking and production process, their output is very limited. From seed formation to production, everything shows their rarity! This also results in their relatively high price, making them a luxury in the tea market. However, because of their unique taste and health benefits, they are still highly sought after by tea lovers.

The woody aroma comes with a very wild ecological flavor, which is a very natural aroma. After soaking for a while, there will be a slight bitterness, but it will soon be replaced by sweetness. Chinese traditional medicine has a similar taste. When you drink it, you can probably understand why it is so good for health.

For the subsequent infusions, it can be soaked appropriately. Tea seeds have extremely high resistance to multiple infusions. Twenty infusions are no problem. For tea seeds with a certain age, they can be directly boiled.
