Key Features

Gong Mei offers a premium white tea experience at a more accessible price point. Its rich, lasting flavor makes it an excellent choice for daily enjoyment, inviting exploration into the world of white tea.
- Traditional Craft for Consistent Flavor
Made using the traditional white tea method (no roasting or rolling), it undergoes a controlled 52-60 hour alternating-withering process. This precise technique helps develop its characteristic honeyed sweetness and smooth aftertaste.

Known for its mellow character, this tea is approachable for newcomers to white tea while also satisfying seasoned drinkers looking for a flavorful, versatile daily cup.
Origin & Growing Environment
Our Gong Mei is sourced from the heart of Fujian's white tea country, including Songxi, Zhenghe, and Jianyang. These high-elevation regions, shrouded in mist with fertile, mineral-rich soil and ample rainfall, provide ideal conditions for the tea plants to develop complex aromas and flavors. The tea gardens are maintained without synthetic pesticides or chemical fertilizers, relying on natural methods.
Each area lends a unique nuance: Songxi contributes a notable silky aroma, Zhenghe's higher altitude lends a fuller body, and Jianyang's leaves are known for their exceptional re-steeping capability.
Cultivation & Craftsmanship
- We employ manual weeding and natural pest control, cultivating native tea bush varieties for an authentic taste.
- Harvested briefly each spring according to strict standards, using only tender buds with two or three leaves.
- The tea undergoes a precise alternating-withering process indoors and under brief sunlight, followed by low-temperature baking. This careful, partially hands-on craft ensures consistent quality in every batch.
Three Ways to Enjoy
