Join the Tea Community

Our customers and tea friends often gather on The Tea Table, a tea community on Discord originally created by tea enthusiast Liquid Proust in 2020. 

Inside the server, members discuss tea, share tasting notes, and help each other learn more about Chinese tea. 

Some of our customers have also started a small OrientaLeaf corner there to chat about the teas they’re drinking. If you'd like to meet other tea drinkers and join the conversation, you're warmly welcome to join.

Handpicked spring buds create a luminous, fragrant white tea with a silky-smooth, sweet finish — a rare delight for tea enthusiasts and collectors alike.

Freshly harvested buds and first leaves form a premium white tea with natural sweetness, elegant floral aroma, and a silky, full-bodied infusion.

Harvested from the heart of Jinggu, Yunnan —a region renowned for its centuries-old white tea tradition —this White Peony tea embodies the rich heritage of Chinese tea. Known historically as a core area for White Longxu Tribute Tea 白龙须贡茶, the tea leaves are handpicked at the peak of spring, selecting only the most tender buds and first-expanded leaves — the prized Peony King grade.

The tea cake, with its round, evenly pressed form and distinctive silver-green appearance (“Silver Wrapped Jade 银包玉”), delivers an inviting aroma of fresh white florals, subtle honeyed notes, and hints of almond and soft grassiness. The liquor is bright yellow, smooth and slightly viscous, unfolding a natural, mellow sweetness that lingers on the palate.

As it matures lightly over time, the flavor evolves subtly, revealing richer floral undertones and a deepened sweetness, perfect for daily enjoyment or careful collection. Each infusion invites a journey through delicate florals and light sweetness, connecting traditional Chinese craftsmanship with Western flavor appreciation.
