"Organic Snow Buds, known as Xue Ya in China, is hand harvested approximately 1100 meters above sea level in the Fujian province of Southeast China.
"...Rishi Tea's Organic Snow Buds is quite rare and can only be picked from a specific type of white tea plant three days of the year. In China, white teas are believed to strengthen the immune system and consumed during the hot months of the year to cool and refresh."
Yesterday, Andrew and I purchased some of this somewhat expensive variety of tea, and it is quite delicious.
