Yunnan White Tea is a white tea made from wild arbor tea trees in Xigui, Yunnan Province — a very different growing environment from the typical Fujian white teas. Where Fujian white teas tend toward delicate and floral, Yunnan's ancient trees produce something bolder: citrus and woody notes with a hint of mint and a honey-like sweetness underneath.

This 2021 spring harvest is compressed into small biscuit-shaped pieces — a piece for each gongfu brewing session. The arbor trees grow naturally without pesticides, and their deep root systems draw up minerals that you can taste in the cup. Four years of ageing has smoothed out the tea's character while keeping its distinctive Yunnan personality.

How it tastes

More structured than a typical white tea. You'll notice citrus first, then a woody quality and a hay-like freshness. The honey sweetness comes through as an aftertaste and builds with later infusions. If you're used to Fujian white teas and want something different, this Yunnan version might surprise you.

Racheal from Adelaide tried a sample when she was visiting Hobart and had to reorder online afterwards — she said it's become one of her favourites. We hear this a lot with the Yunnan White Tea. It's different enough from typical white teas that people remember it.

A note from Joanne: "Yunnan white teas have a distinct character that comes from those old arbor trees — there's a depth and body you don't get from bush-grown tea. I like to brew this one with slightly hotter water than I'd use for Silver Needles or White Peony. It can handle it, and the heat brings out the honey notes. If you've only tried Fujian white teas, this Yunnan version is worth exploring — it's a different experience."

Good, but you sacrifice a few things in favor of style
Color: Black Leather/Black, Size: 10, Color: Black Leather/Black, Size: 10
It’s much better than other shoes out there, but the design is slightly confusing. The first thing you have to know is that the shoe won’t be mind blowingly soft, but it is around as comfortable as standing on something like vans shoes. The holes on top are both a plus and a minus, when you step in a puddle, your feet get instantly soaked, but just by walking around for a bit, they dry up again. Then these holes reduce the structural integrity of the shoe, so I expect the top to be the first part of the shoe that deteriorates, when usually for all my other shoes, it’s the sole that falls off first. With the holes, you can’t shine them the traditional way, you have to be more careful as you might get goo into the inside fiber. Finally you can’t run in these, they’re larger than your foot which is quite comfortable while just standing or walking, but I’m sure they’ll tear if you don’t watch your footing. If all that is okay with you, You’ll get quite a few compliments on it as you walk around, because these are beautiful and excellent as a dress shoe/loafer hybrid

Great gift for any guy!
Color: Black Leather/Black, Size: 12
These are one of 2 pairs of work shoes my husband will wear, the other one is the same shoe in brown. He says they’re the comfiest pair of dress shoes he’s ever had and the quality and ease of cleaning is incredible. They’ve lasted him years now so I’d say they’re well worth the money.
