WHERE IT COMES FROM

Fujian, China

Platinum Grace is a highland white tea from Fujian Province made from the Jin Xuan cultivar, a variety valued for its smooth texture and naturally floral character.

The leaves are carefully sun-withered, rested indoors and lightly oxidized before gentle baking. This restrained processing preserves Jin Xuan’s soft character while developing deeper honeyed and fruity aromas.

The finished leaves show silvery hairs and subtle reddish tips. In the cup, the combination of Jin Xuan and gentle oxidation creates a profile that sits between the delicacy of white tea and the aromatic complexity associated with Oriental Beauty-style teas.

Good for: mornings, afternoons and long, relaxed tea sessions.
