More Information

White teas, sometimes known as "Scholars Tea," are a pure and gentle expression of the Camellia sinensis plant. White teas, unlike other forms of tea, are not burned or rolled. Instead, they are picked early in the spring season and let to air dry or wither, on racks in a specific room with temperature, humidity, and airflow control. 

Over the period of 1-2 days of withering, the moisture condensed inside white tea leaves gently evaporates, curing the leaves in their juices and concentrating the existing sweetness. During the withering process, white teas are gently oxidized by enzymes.

Tiny tea leaves and silvery unopened leaf buds make this famous white tea variety. This tea has a sophisticated mouthfeel with a somewhat stronger body than Silver Needles and is distinguished by being plucked in "budsets" of one or two leaves and a bud. The outcome of a gentle and slow air-drying procedure is a magnificent amber infusion with a honey-like viscosity and mild flavor that matches well with meals.

Vintage White Tea: How to Make (Brew) It

• 3–4 teaspoons white tea
• Fill the pot halfway with hot water (about 70-80 degrees).
• Allow it to steep for around 2-3 minutes.
• When making the tea, you'll notice a faint peony scent as well as a floral scent. The tea should be made with good mineral water and at a temperature of 70°C to 80°C.

White teas can be brewed for extended periods and at higher temperatures than the green ones. In most cases, this is roughly 190 degrees for 3 to 5 minutes. Others, on the other hand, are more sensitive and should be steeped for 2 to 3 minutes in water temperatures ranging from 160 to 180 degrees.

When it comes to steeping time, white tea is a little more forgiving than green or black tea. You don't want to oversteep your tea, either, because it will release bitterness and astringency. After steeping for the prescribed time, taste your tea and decide whether it needs to steep a bit longer.

If there is no electric kettle at your home with temperature control, keep in mind that water stews at 190 degrees and boils at 212 degrees at sea level. For every 100 feet of altitude gain, the boiling temperature reduces by roughly a degree. So, for brewing your white tea, a temperature of just below a simmer should suffice.

If your white tea came with instructions for brewing, follow them. However, a safe bet is to use roughly 2 grams of loose leaf tea per 8 oz. cup of water.

When brewing tea, start with fresh, pure, cold filtered water.Of course, the best water is spring water.

To maintain all of the heat in the steeping pot, cover your tea as it steeps. The majority of high-quality loose leaf white teas can be steeped more than once. White teas are so delicate and fine that they're best consumed pure, without milk or sugar, to fully appreciate their real flavor.

White Tea's Health Benefits

Polyphenols present in white tea may aid in relaxing blood vessels, promoting immunity, and reducing the oxidation of harmful cholesterol. These factors may assist in reducing the risk of heart disease.

Thankfully, white tea appears to be one of the most effective beverages for combating free radicals. Indeed, studies show that white tea contains antioxidant properties similar to green tea, which is well-known for its health advantages. Polyphenols, which are antioxidants, are abundant in white tea. They aid in the reduction of chronic inflammation by protecting the body from free radical damage.

Caffeine and catechins like EGCG are abundant in white tea. These two chemicals may work together to help the body burn fat and increase metabolism.

Fluoride, catechins, and tannins are abundant in white tea. These substances have been found in several studies to aid in the battle against bacteria that produce plaque on teeth. Furthermore, test-tube experiments revealed that white tea extract reduced and prevented the spread of various types of cancer cells. More human research, on the other hand, is required. 

Insulin resistance is also a dangerous condition connected to a variety of chronic diseases. Polyphenols, such as those present in white tea, have been demonstrated in studies to reduce the risk of insulin resistance and enhance blood sugar control.

For best results, drink one cup of vintage white tea twice a day. It’s a great option to relax your senses with mild flavor while adding a luxury cup to your routine. Many tea lovers have this tea in their favorites because of its natural sweetness.

How to store white tea? 

While tea does not go "bad," it can become stale. Ksepana continuously strives to tell our customers when and how the tea was processed and packaged to ensure you're getting the freshest tea possible.

White tea, like its delicate green tea relative, requires identical preservation techniques. If properly stored, these less oxidized teas can last up to a year. Consider the following storage suggestions:

• Tea should be kept in a cold, dark place at all times.
• Tea should never be stored in the refrigerator and should be kept away from heat, light, air, and moisture.
• If you keep your tea in an opaque, airtight container, it will last longer.
• Allowing the tea to share the cupboard with products such as coffee and spices, which can leech their taste into the tea leaves, is not a good idea.
