Features:

Yunnan Moonlight Tea Buds, also known as Yunnan Yue Guang Bai, is a unique and highly esteemed variety of white tea that originates from the Yunnan province in China. What sets Yunnan Moonlight Tea Buds apart from other teas are its distinctive manufacturing process and the special care taken in its production. The tea leaves are carefully plucked in the moonlight, before the sunrise or at night, to ensure the tender buds are at their peak. The plucking process is completed within a day, and the leaves are then dried indoors using traditional methods, ensuring that they are not exposed to sunlight until the processing is completed. This careful process and attention to detail result in a tea with a unique flavor profile and a beautifully complex character.

One of the most striking features of Yunnan Moonlight Tea Buds is the appearance of the dried leaves. The leaves are two-toned, with one side appearing black and the other side a grayish white, creating a crescent moon-like shape. This visual aspect adds to the allure and mystique of this extraordinary tea.
