White Monkey Bai Mao Hou (literally, white-haired monkey 白毛猴), also known as White Monkey Paws, is a classic delicate Fujian tippy green tea that finely balances the characteristics of a light green tea with a flavoursome white tea profile. The tea leaves are fully covered with white down and beautifully hand-rolled, resembling a white monkey's paw.

 

These paws infuse to showcase a clean greenish-yellow liquor that imparts a well-balanced smooth green tea in a white tea appearance, offering an umami taste encountering of sugar cane and seaweed with a high level of antioxidants. This White Monkey green tea will make a perfect alternative for the milky or sugary beverage in your daily healthy diet routine while bringing the joy of a satisfying fine green tea tasting experience.
