Apothecary White Peony Tea
$6.00
Soft, naturally sweet, and made from nothing but tea leaves, Apothecary Teas' White Peony is a sun-dried loose-leaf white tea for anyone who wants a lighter cup than black or green tea. The youngest, most tender leaves dry naturally in the sun instead of being heat-processed. The result is a clean, smooth brew with gentle melon notes and no bitterness.
Why You'll Love This Apothecary White Tea
- Naturally sweet flavor: Each cup opens with a light sweetness, moves into delicate melon notes and finishes smooth.
- Pure leaf: The only ingredient is white tea, with no added flavorings or blends.
- Made for multiple infusions: These loose leaves can be steeped again and again, and the flavor shifts from one infusion to the next.
- Easy to brew: This white tea is forgiving if you steep it a little long, so it suits beginners and seasoned tea drinkers alike.
- A lighter afternoon or evening cup: Its low caffeine level makes it a good pick for later in the day.
- Two sizes: Start with a sample, or choose the 2.5oz size for regular sipping.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does Apothecary Teas' White Peony Tea contain caffeine?
Yes. It is a true white tea, so it naturally contains caffeine. The level is low compared with black or green teas, which makes it a comfortable choice for an afternoon or evening cup.
Can Apothecary Teas' White Peony Tea be steeped more than once?
Yes. The whole loose leaves hold up well over several infusions. Each steep brings out a slightly different side of the tea's sweetness and melon character.
Is Apothecary Teas' White Peony Tea the same as white peony root tea?
No. White peony root comes from an entirely different plant. This is a true white tea made from tea leaves, not a flower-root herbal infusion.
