Product Description
This 2026 Anji White Tea comes from the renowned tea gardens of Anji County, Zhejiang Province – the birthplace of the celebrated Anji white tea variety. Harvested just before the rainy season, this Pre-Rain tea captures the perfect balance of freshness and depth that makes it an ideal daily tea.
Anji white tea is not a traditional white tea in the sense of being withered and dried – it is actually a green tea made from a unique variety of tea plant that produces leaves with an exceptionally high amino acid content and low polyphenol levels. This gives the tea its signature mild, mellow, and sweet flavour profile that is both refreshing and deeply satisfying.
The dry leaves are flat, slender, and beautifully uniform, displaying the distinctive light green colour with a subtle silver sheen that is characteristic of premium Anji white tea. When brewed, the liquor is a clear, bright, pale green – almost like a jade infusion. The aroma is fresh and clean, with delicate vegetal notes and a gentle, sweet undertone. The taste is smooth, mellow, and wonderfully sweet – a perfect everyday tea that never becomes overwhelming or astringent.
This tea is positioned as a “daily tea” – a high-quality, accessible option for those who want to enjoy the distinctive character of Anji white tea as part of their regular routine. With its gentle, easy-drinking nature and generous 500g quantity, it is ideal for daily enjoyment, whether at home, in the office, or shared with friends and family.

Health Benefits
Anji white tea is known for its exceptional health benefits, largely due to its high amino acid content:
-
Naturally calming – the high theanine content promotes relaxation and mental clarity
-
Rich in antioxidants – supports overall wellness and a healthy immune system
-
Gentle on the stomach – low polyphenol levels make it less astringent than other green teas, suitable for sensitive stomachs
-
Supports focus – a perfect tea for daily work and study routines
Brewing Recommendation
| Parameter | Recommendation |
|---|---|
| Teaware | Glass tumbler or porcelain gaiwan |
| Tea amount | 3–4g |
| Water volume | 200–250ml |
| Water temperature | 75–80°C (167–176°F) – let boiling water cool slightly |
Steps:
-
Pre-warm the vessel with hot water, then discard.
-
Place the leaves into the warm vessel and appreciate the fresh, clean fragrance.
-
Pour water at the recommended temperature gently along the wall of the vessel.
-
Steep for 1–2 minutes, then pour and enjoy.
-
For subsequent infusions, add 30 seconds to the steeping time – you can enjoy 3–4 satisfying cups from the same leaves.
Pro Tip: Anji white tea is one of the most forgiving teas to brew – it rarely becomes bitter even if slightly over-steeped. However, to truly appreciate its delicate sweetness and jade-like clarity, we recommend using slightly cooler water (around 75°C) and shorter steeping times for the first infusion.
