White tea, when fully processed, boasts a surface covered with abundant white downy hairs, paired with green leaves accented by red veins—it falls under the category of fermented teas.
There are two distinct types of "white tea" being referred to here:
1. The first refers to teas crafted from the fresh leaves of the white tea plant, following a processing method similar to green tea production. These teas naturally retain their white hue due to the pale color of the buds and leaves, yet they skip the initial withering stage altogether. This type is technically classified as "white tea" within the green tea family—examples include Anji White Tea.
2. The second type involves using ordinary tea plant leaves, which undergo natural withering, mild fermentation, and then are dried without rolling or pan-firing—often employing either air-drying or gentle low-heat roasting. This results in what’s known as "fermented white tea," such as Fuding White Tea, which truly qualifies as the authentic variety of white tea.
What sets this second type apart is that the fresh leaves are withered until they reach about 80–90% dryness, at which point no further processing occurs.

White tea pillow promotes sleep—definitely not your average tea pillow.
2012-04-20
In the Tai Mu Mountain region of eastern Fujian, locals enjoy rosy complexions, sharp hearing and vision, dark hair, strong teeth, and remarkable physical vitality—so much so that living well into their hundreds is no rarity. Surveys reveal that this area is surrounded by towering mountains, lush green forests shrouded in mist and clouds, and boasts a unique local specialty: white tea, renowned for its potent medicinal properties. Locals have even crafted white tea-infused pillows, which help them drift off to sleep effortlessly and wake up feeling refreshed and rejuvenated the next morning—plus, they rarely fall ill, enjoying long, healthy lives.
According to the ancient text *Huangdi Neijing*, "White tea from the deep mountains of eastern Fujian invigorates blood circulation, clears meridians, and promotes restful sleep when used as a pillow—its effects become truly remarkable after just three days." Recent research further confirms that white tea not only aids relaxation and improves sleep quality but also has remarkable benefits for eye health, effectively alleviating symptoms like dry eyes, blurred vision, tinnitus, and even hearing loss. Prolonged consumption of white tea may thus contribute significantly to both mental calmness and overall wellness.

As the New Year's Day and Spring Festival approach, professionals find themselves juggling numerous social engagements and gatherings, often leading to frequent alcohol consumption. Not only does excessive drinking severely harm the body, but it can also create significant disruptions in daily life. While many people are familiar with common hangover remedies, using incorrect methods can actually do more harm than good.
For instance, drinking strong tea to relieve a hangover is akin to pouring gasoline on a fire. People commonly believe that sipping strong tea after getting drunk helps ease the effects of alcohol—but medical experts warn that this practice only exacerbates the situation. Alcohol stimulates the nervous system, causing an increased heart rate, widened blood vessels, and faster blood circulation. When someone is intoxicated, this stimulating effect intensifies, turning what might otherwise be manageable into something far more dangerous.
Rare white tea renowned overseas
2012-04-10
White tea is a renowned historic tea, unique to Fujian Province, and belongs to the category of lightly fermented teas. Its distinctive appearance features needle-like shapes, densely covered with white down, giving it an ethereal, silvery-white look that seems almost untouched by color—hence its name. The traditional production method sets it apart from other teas: fresh buds and leaves are carefully harvested, gently air-dried without any rolling or pan-firing, ensuring the delicate integrity of the buds while preserving their abundant white down. Throughout the process, drying and natural air exposure play the central roles, making the craftsmanship surprisingly simple yet highly effective.
What’s more, white tea boasts a naturally cooling nature, making it particularly beneficial for reducing fever and alleviating inflammation.
Today, the primary growing regions for white tea are located in counties such as Zhenghe, Fuding, Jianyang, and Songxi within Fujian Province—areas characterized by rolling hills, mild year-round climates, and abundant rainfall.
White tea may help prevent cerebrovascular diseases.
2012-04-09
Cerebrovascular disease is a relatively common condition with a high incidence rate, significantly impacting human health. If left untreated promptly, it can lead to "hemiplegia." Cerebrovascular diseases include conditions such as cerebral embolism, cerebral thrombosis, and cerebral hemorrhage. The primary causes stem from a state of hypercoagulability in the body, where red blood cells tend to clump together, slowing blood flow and promoting thrombus formation. Alternatively, weakened blood vessel walls become more fragile, making them susceptible to rupture under the influence of external adverse factors, resulting in bleeding.
Fortunately, cerebrovascular disease is preventable. In recent years, extensive clinical research has demonstrated that regular tea consumption—particularly white tea—can help reduce the risk of developing these conditions. But why exactly does white tea offer protective benefits against cerebrovascular disease? A renowned professor from Zhejiang Medical University is here to explain.
White tea is beneficial for protecting eyesight.
2012-04-07
Tea is generally considered unsuitable for children, though white tea is an exception. White tea is beneficial for protecting eyesight. It’s rich in provitamin A, which, once absorbed by the body, quickly converts into vitamin A. Vitamin A is a crucial component in the synthesis of rhodopsin, a pigment essential for vision, helping the eyes see more clearly in low-light conditions and effectively preventing night blindness and dry eye disease.
Moreover, white tea contains compounds that offer protection against radiation, providing significant support to the body’s blood-forming functions and reducing the harmful effects of TV radiation.
White tea also helps combat the summer heat. Packed with various amino acids and possessing a slightly cooling nature, it has excellent properties for reducing fever, relieving summer discomfort, and detoxifying the body. Sipping a cup of white tea during hot weather can greatly lower the risk of heatstroke.
As for aged white teas—specifically those with abundant white hairs (baihao)—they develop even richer flavors and health benefits over time.
How much do you know about the art of tea drinking?
2012-04-06
Drinking tea should be done in moderation. Tea contains high levels of tannins, theophylline, caffeine, as well as small amounts of aromatic oils, various vitamins, chlorophyll, and other beneficial compounds. When consumed appropriately, tea can help stimulate saliva production to quench thirst, eliminate dampness while clearing heat, boost alertness and enhance brain function, and even aid in disease prevention and weight management.
By "appropriate," we mean two key things: First, the tea should be brewed at a moderate strength—typically, 3 grams of tea leaves are sufficient for one cup. If the tea is too strong, it may interfere with the body’s ability to absorb essential minerals like iron from food, potentially leading to anemia. Second, keep your daily intake within a reasonable range, ideally limiting yourself to 8–10 cups per day. Drinking excessive amounts of tea can put extra strain on your kidneys. Lastly, avoid drinking tea within one hour before or after meals, as this could hinder the absorption of proteins by your body. Finally, be mindful of certain restrictions—
