There's a saying in China that "white tea aged for a year is tea, for three years becomes medicine, and for seven years becomes treasure".  

Aged white tea is not only a refreshing beverage, it is also known among the people as a drink that cultivates and rejuvenates the body. Aged white tea is often used as folk medicine - for soothing headaches, fever, and nourishing the body back to health.

Shou Mei's most unique feature is that it contains more stems, which allow for more space and gaps when pressed into tea cake. The tea stems promote ventilation, exposing the inside leaves of the tea cake to small amounts of air. This gradually ages the inside of the tea cake, allowing it to age faster and have a stronger aged aroma than other white tea varieties. 

Aged Shou Mei brews into an elegant, bright liquor. Its herbal aroma and smooth, full bodied texture is a truly intoxicating sensorial experience.
