{"product_id":"chenpi-bai-cha-white-tea-tangerine-peel-5g","title":"Chenpi Bai Cha, Gong Mei White Tea with Xinhui Tangerine Peel, 5g | Fuding, Fujian","description":"\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eChenpi Bai Cha (陈皮白茶) pairs 2018 Gong Mei white tea from Fuding, Fujian, with aged tangerine peel from Xinhui in Guangdong, the most famous source of chenpi (陈皮, \"aged peel\") in China. Chenpi is usually paired with ripe pu-erh, but with white tea the combination becomes lighter and more fragrant. Made by Fuding Changpin White Tea Co. for Hualinchun (华林春), pressed into small 5 g pieces and sold individually.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eWhite tea is the least processed tea of all, simply withered and dried. Gong Mei, made from leaves and a few buds, is fuller than Silver Needle, and several years of rest have given this 2018 tea a soft, honeyed sweetness with no bitterness. The aged peel adds a warm, mellow citrus aroma, closer to dried orange zest than to fresh fruit, plus a pleasant bittersweet edge. Expect a clear golden infusion that is smooth, sweet and fragrant, with the citrus note lingering after each sip.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eEach piece is a ready-measured serving: brew it in a mug, a small teapot or a thermos with water just off the boil. It steeps well more than once, and the peel keeps giving aroma in later infusions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eAn easy, fragrant everyday cup and a good introduction to the classic Chinese pairing of tea and chenpi, without having to buy a whole box.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTea profile\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTea type\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCompressed white tea blend, Gong Mei with aged tangerine peel (chenpi)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIngredients\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2018 Gong Mei white tea, Xinhui tangerine peel (chenpi)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTaste\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSoft sweet white tea, mellow citrus, gentle bittersweet peel note\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAroma\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWarm citrus, dried orange zest, sweet\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCharacter\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSmooth, fragrant, mellow\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBest time\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDaytime, evening, after meals, cooler weather\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePreparation\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1 piece per 300–400 ml, water 95–100 °C, 3–5 minutes; can be re-steeped or brewed in a thermos\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHualinchun (华林春); made by Fuding Changpin White Tea Co.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct name\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eChenpi Bai Cha (陈皮白茶)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWhite tea: Fuding, Ningde, Fujian; tangerine peel: Xinhui, Guangdong\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eYear\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2018 Gong Mei; produced January 2026\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCompressed 5 g piece, individually packed\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5 g\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Hualinchun","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":64955331936633,"sku":"HLC-White-02","price":1.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0981\/3616\/2681\/files\/chenpi-01-packaging.png?v=1793003455","url":"https:\/\/teacha.store\/en\/products\/chenpi-bai-cha-white-tea-tangerine-peel-5g","provider":"TeaCha","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
