Description
xSerene White is crafted in Fuding Jianyang from the rare Purple Bud small-leaf variety, harvested in 2021. Purple Bud is an occasional, natural mutation in the tea plant—highly prized for its concentrated vitality and unique character. It grows sparsely, is picked individually, and is processed in small batches, making it exceptionally rare.
The fresh leaves display a deep green to violet hue, containing anthocyanins at levels 50–100 times higher than ordinary green tea leaves. This gives the tea not only its signature color but also a naturally rich, layered flavor.
When brewed, the fragrance unfolds gradually—subtle, sweet, and gently floral. The liquor enters the palate with delicate warmth, smooth sweetness, and a refined freshness. The sensation is unhurried yet expansive, spreading deeply and broadly, with a distinct jelly-like texture when diluted.
Serene White is especially suited for morning or late-morning enjoyment, offering a calming clarity, gentle warmth, and a quiet, centering presence. It is a tea to sip slowly, allowing its depth and grace to fully emerge.
