Qianshan (千山, \"A Thousand Mountains\") from Hualinchun (华林春) is a whole 300 g cake of Fuding white tea, pressed for keeping and ageing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eWhite tea is the least processed of all tea types, simply withered and dried, which makes it one of the few teas that genuinely improves with age. Pressing into a cake lets it age slowly and evenly: the fresh, floral, hay-like notes of a young white gradually deepen into honey, dried fruit and a warm, date-like sweetness. In China, well-aged white tea is highly valued for exactly this reason.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eExpect a pale golden liquor, soft and rounded, with floral and honey notes, a light fresh-hay character and a clean, sweet finish. Break off a piece and it steeps kindly across many infusions, gongfu style or in a Western pot, and it takes well to longer steeps. Older pressed white tea can also be gently simmered for a deeper, sweeter cup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eA cake to drink slowly over many months or to keep and follow as it changes, and a handsome gift for anyone who enjoys white tea.\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\u003eWhite tea, Fuding, pressed cake\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTaste\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFloral, honey, fresh hay, soft sweetness\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAroma\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFloral, honey, warm hay\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCharacter\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSoft, smooth, 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, cooler weather, relaxed sessions\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePreparation\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGongfu cha, Western style; around 90–100 °C; takes well to longer steeps\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)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFuding, Fujian, China\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eYear\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2021\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAging potential\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSuitable for long-term ageing in the cake\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCompressed tea cake, whole\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e300 g\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Hualinchun","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":64955465662841,"sku":"HLC-White-03","price":69.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0981\/3616\/2681\/files\/qianshan-01-packaging.png?v=1792778355","url":"https:\/\/teacha.store\/en\/products\/hualinchun-qianshan-fuding-white-tea-cake-2021-300g","provider":"TeaCha","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
