Nanping, Fujian, China

Lu Xue Ya is a historic Fujian white tea associated with the early development of the region’s white-tea tradition.

This version is produced from Fuding Dabai and Dahao cultivars grown at approximately 500–600 meters near the southern slopes of the Wuyi Mountains. Spring leaves are handpicked using one bud with one or two leaves.

The tea is naturally withered and slowly dried without rolling, preserving its down-covered buds, gentle sweetness and fresh character.
