What kinds of white camellias are there?

White tea can be divided into bud tea (such as Baihao Yinzhen) and leaf tea (such as Bai Mudan, New White Tea, Gongmei and Shoumei) because of different varieties of tea trees and different standards for picking raw materials (fresh leaves).

The main varieties of white tea are Bai Mudan and Baihao Yinzhen. Why does Bai Mudan have an elegant name? Bai Mudan is famous for its green leaves and silvery white heart-shaped flowers. After brewing, the green leaves hold the buds, just like the original buds. Bai Mudan is the best white tea, which is made of short buds and leaves, one bud and one leaf of Dabai tea tree or narcissus variety. White tea made from the fat buds of Dabai tea tree is called "Baihao Yinzhen", which is named after its appearance as white as silver and needle-shaped. It is the most precious variety of white tea. Its fragrance is fresh, the soup is yellowish and the taste is fresh and refreshing. It is the best in white tea. White tea made of short buds and leaves of vegetable tea (another name for the general shrub tea tree in Fujian tea area) is called "tribute tea" and "eyebrow tea". The quality of tribute tea is better than that of Yumei tea.
