Our organically grown Bai Mu Dan White Tea (also known as "White
Peony") is grown in the mountains of the Fujian Province in
China and is from the tender young buds and leaves that remain
after the legendary Silver Needle has been harvested. White tea
( camellia senensis) undergoes very little processing and the
absence of this (steaming, rolling and oxidation) leaves the
appearance and cell structure of the leaves basically unaltered.
This purity may be what some researchers have said might cause
white tea to have a greater concentration of cancer fighting
antioxidants than all other teas. White teas have all of the
benefits of green tea and are the most delicate of all, their
taste being subtle, complex and mildly sweet.
Because there
is very little processing with white tea, the caffeine content
is low at approximately 15 to 20 mg per cup. Green tea contains
20 to 30 mg. per cup, black tea contains 80 to 120 mg. per cup
and coffee contains 100 to 200 mg. per cup.
