Main Benefit 1 of Shoumei: Clearing Heat and Detoxifying

One of the main benefits of white tea Shoumei is clearing heat and detoxifying. It uses a tender-picking and refined process, selecting the highest-quality tender green tea leaves, and the picking is done from Qingming to Guyu, which gives this Shoumei tea its heat-clearing and detoxifying properties. Especially in some tropical regions, Shoumei is often used as an effective remedy for heatiness and internal heat.

Main Benefit 2 of Shoumei: Detoxifying and Beautifying

Shoumei tea is a neutral tea, neither cold nor hot, and its antioxidant capacity is relatively strong. It is precisely this function that helps promote metabolism in the body's various systems, thereby achieving the main benefit of detoxifying and beautifying.

Main Benefit 3 of Shoumei: Reducing Fever and Relieving Heat

When you have a fever, heatstroke, or internal heat, you might as well use white tea Shoumei to relieve these symptoms. Its fragrance not only lifts people's spirits, but also, by supplementing essential amino acids as well as other vitamins and minerals, strengthens the immune system and powerfully fights fever, ultimately achieving the benefit of reducing fever and relieving heat.

The above explains the main benefits of white tea Shoumei. Shoumei tea is a very genuine and substantial good tea.

Characteristic 1: Spring Water, Autumn Fragrance

Tieguanyin is known for "spring water, autumn fragrance," and Shoumei also has this trait.

Spring water: After the tea trees rest through a winter, the tea polyphenols, amino acids, vitamins and other substances in the fresh leaves are stored more abundantly, so the liquor is fuller and more delicate.

Autumn fragrance: After the intense heat of summer, the tea trees enter another good growing period around Bailu, and autumn is mostly a time of north winds, with clear autumn skies and refreshing air. The fresh leaves lose water smoothly, so the natural aroma is high and uplifting, but the liquor quality is not as delicate as spring tea.

Spring Shoumei tea has a strong fresh and brisk taste in the liquor; Bailu tea has a full flavor, withstands multiple infusions, and has a clear, high aroma.

Characteristic 2: The Older, the Better

The older, the better: As white tea ages, the content of its internal substances such as tea polyphenols, caffeine, and soluble sugars shows a declining trend, but the content of flavonoids shows an increasing trend. Flavonoids are a very strong antioxidant that can prevent cell degeneration and aging.

White tea Shoumei is cool in nature, but after long-term storage, the substances inside the tea undergo a slow oxidation reaction. Therefore, the nature of Shoumei tea gradually becomes milder, and it has better benefits for the human body.

Characteristic 3: Aged Shoumei Withstands Many Infusions and Can Be Boiled

When brewed normally in a gaiwan, it can reach more than ten infusions, and the liquor color and taste show no obvious decline. The aroma decreases somewhat, but the softness and sweetness still show no obvious change.

Boiling method: Add 7-8 grams of aged white tea to room-temperature clean water, and once the tea water comes to a boil, let it boil for 8-10 seconds and it is ready to enjoy. Its flavor is rich, with a pronounced medicinal aroma.

Characteristic 4: Affordable Price, Large Room for Appreciation

"The longer white tea is stored, the higher its medicinal value, and therefore it has great collectible value." This view is widely recognized in the industry. Aged white tea has detoxifying benefits and was once called "measles tea" and "heat-clearing tea" among the people. The longer it is stored, the more the tea's aroma, taste, and benefits will change.

Shoumei of the current season looks like withered leaves and is not expensive. As the years pass, through internal settling and sublimation, Shoumei's own value gradually increases. The price of a cake of high-quality aged white tea can reach dozens of times its original price, so its room for appreciation can be called huge.
