Fujian is a major tea-producing province, accounting for four out of the six major tea categories. Among them, oolong tea—often referred to as "qingcha"—is the most renowned variety. Meanwhile, the relatively understated white and green teas have long attracted dedicated fans thanks to their refreshing, sweet, and delicate flavors.
Speaking of white tea, did you know the difference between Bai Hao Yin Zhen (Silver Needle) and Bai Mu Dan (White Peony)? Or can you tell the distinctions among stir-fried green tea, baked green tea, sun-dried green tea, and steamed green tea? To help us better understand these fascinating teas, Chen Yurong, a member of the National Tea Standards Technical Committee, a senior quality engineer, and a nationally certified Grade-One Senior Tea Taster, will share her expertise on white and green teas.
But first, what exactly is white tea? Primarily produced in regions like Fuding and Zhenghe in Fujian Province, white tea is a unique and distinctive type of Chinese specialty tea.

A brief introduction to Shoumei Tea:
Nanshan Shoumei tea features slightly flattened, gently curved tea strips with a vibrant green color and delicate white tips, resembling the elegant eyebrows of an elderly sage.

After rigorous testing and refinement, it successfully passed evaluation in 1986 and went on to win the prestigious Ministry of Agriculture’s Famous Tea Award in 1989.

Recently, the Fuding City Quality and Metrology Testing Institute dispatched staff members to brave the scorching heat and venture into Diandou Town—the primary production area for "Fuding White Tea"—to collect samples for pesticide residue testing of autumn tea leaves. The team visited key tea-producing areas in the town, including Bailu, Wengxi, and Juzhou, as well as the Cha Hua Trading Market, gathering a total of five fresh tea leaf samples. Moving forward, institute technicians will analyze these samples against the relevant standards outlined in the national standard GB 2763-2005, "Maximum Residue Limits of Pesticides in Food," focusing on five specific pesticide residues: permethrin, cypermethrin, fenvalerate, esfenvalerate, and deltamethrin.
Meanwhile, it’s reported that in recent weeks, Fuding has been actively strengthening its efforts to ensure the safety and quality of its renowned white teas.

[Lead] At the South Asia Expo held in Kunming in early June this year, reporters met with Fuding tea entrepreneurs who have been making their mark in Kunming for nearly a decade, uncovering the lesser-known stories of how they initially carved out a market and turned tea trading into a thriving business.
At the turn of the century, capitalizing on the opportunity presented by the World Horticultural Exposition, Fuding tea merchants made a bold entry into Kunming—and almost all of their journeys share a common thread: they were "forced" to leave their hometowns behind and venture into the city.
Carrying tea bags on their backs and navigating bustling streets became their go-to strategy for tapping into Kunming’s tea market, as well as those across Southwest China.
With the establishment of specialized tea markets, they finally bid farewell to the chaotic "street-level competition," allowing them to settle down and establish more stable, long-term operations.
