Despite many people wrongly thinking that this is a White tea (because of the character ‘bai’ which means ‘White’ in Chinese), Anji Bai Cha is a Green tea which has a relatively modern history. It started being produced in significant quantities about 30 years ago and since then, this tea has risen as one of the must-have teas for any tea lover.
The problem is that with reputation comes a snob value and connoisseurs in China are fuelling hefty price tags in their fight to get the best Anji tea every spring
.
As always in tea, there are many different quality levels in Anji Bai Cha and there is a lot of cheaper tea out there being sold at hiked up prices. So, we went to Anji to show you what the absolute top of the pile tea looks, like, how it is made and how it tastes so that you can make more informed buying decisions when choosing your Green tea.
