2023 Jinggu Yangta White Tea

Fujian, China

Jinggu Yangta White Tea 2023 is a young white tea made from ancient tree material in the Jinggu region of Yunnan. What I like about this tea is its balance between freshness and sweetness. The profile leans toward honey, wildflowers, dried apricot, and soft fruit notes, while the liquor remains smooth and easy to drink. Despite its young age, the tea already shows good depth and develops a pleasant lingering sweetness as the session progresses. Produced from spring 2023 harvest material sourced from the Yangta area of Jinggu, Pu'er. The tea is made from ancient tree leaves and pressed into a 100 g cake. Jinggu is known as one of Yunnan's most important white tea regions, producing teas with strong aging potential and a fuller body than many traditional white teas. With proper storage, the tea will gradually develop additional sweetness, complexity, and maturity.
