Introduction
Yunnan Baihao, also known as Yunnan White Downy, is one of China's most esteemed white teas, originating from the lush, misty mountains of Yunnan Province. The tea was developed in the 1960s by the Yunnan Academy of Agricultural Sciences. The region's unique natural geography, characterized by high altitudes, fertile soil, and a suitable climate, provides the perfect environment for tea cultivation. The tea is noted for its prominent white hairs on the young buds, giving it a distinctive appearance. The processing of Yunnan Baihao involves careful hand-picking of the tender buds and leaves, followed by withering, rolling, and drying. This minimal processing helps to preserve the tea’s natural flavors and beneficial properties.
