Moonlight White

Moonlight White, also known as Yueguang Bai, is an exclusive white tea that immediately catches the eye with its delicate, silvery-green leaf structure. Its name refers to the gentle moonlight under which the freshly picked buds are dried – a traditional method that gives the tea its characteristic mild, slightly sweet taste. The tea is lightly oxidized, which preserves its bright, fresh aroma while still adding some color to the cup.

The tea comes from the high-altitude tea gardens of Yunnan, where the leaves are carefully hand-picked. Moonlight White combines the fresh, floral notes of young buds with a smooth, soft texture that delights both beginners and experienced tea lovers alike.

The tea is pressed into the shape of a chocolate bar, which not only makes portioning easier but also protects the aroma of the leaves. Thanks to the compression, the tea stays fresh longer and is ideal for achieving consistent results when brewing.

Steeping produces a bright, golden-green infusion with a subtle, floral aroma. Ideal for enjoying a quiet moment or starting the day gently.

Why did we include this in our shop?

Jonas is a big fan of the pressed chocolate bar format, and Lina loves that this tea can be infused seemingly endlessly, has no bitterness, and reveals new flavor notes with every steep. Both feel that white teas are completely underrated.
