A rare white tea grown, hand-picked, and processed by the H'mong tribe of Vietnam in the Ta Xua Mountains. The trees are typically between 150-500 years old and are quite tall. This is a large bodied white tea with a pale amber color, a rich sweetness of just ripened fruit, and an extremely smooth taste, with no astringency whatsoever. The plentiful down covered buds give this tea its snow name and high antioxidant content. Use a three finger pinch when measuring. An excellent multi-brewer with each cup becoming more smooth and dark.
