Description
Green tea (do not be confused by its name) that grows along the slopes of the Taimu mountains in the Fujian province of China. The young leaves and unopened buds are carefully gathered and processed exclusively by hand. The result is a tea that appears intricately woven with large and beautiful white tips. It produces a very light cup that is noticeably sweet, and infused with a fresh, delicate scent.

"This is a pretty tea, with a nice aroma. We liked the dragonwell better however."
"This is a great tea when brewed properly. A nice light and delicate taste. Reminds me of a cool lazy summer afternoon."
"Very, very delicate grassy flavors, careful not to oversteep the tea!"
"I bought some White monkey for my Mom and she went 'ape' over it, or should I say monkey. :) She's been asking me to order some more. "
"This was a complete disappointment! I love the black tea, Golden Monkey, so I thought this would be a great white version. I was terribly disappointed. It virtually has no smell or taste."
"Very light and mellow tea, I would steep it a little longer than suggested"
