Master Fang

Master Fang is one of China’s foremost experts in white tea production. Helping to run the Centre for White Tea Research in Fuding, as well as overseeing the production of white tea on his three farms on Taimushan which comprise just 11.5 acres. He uses no pesticides or artificial fertilisers on his 20-30 year old trees, believing that above all else white tea should reflect the local terroir and ecosystem on which it is grown and be absolutely free of any impurities.

As well as being a farmer, Master Fang is also an innovator in the white tea world having patented double-sunshine withering and off-ground cleaning technology which are now widely used. To mimic traditional sun-dried white tea he uses his own manually controlled sun-light room which provides precise drying all year round allowing him to make tea in all four seasons. The tea is withered for 36 hours on bamboo drums and during this process hands are not allowed to touch the leaves in case they cause them to shrink. Unlike many other producers Master Fang does not increase the temperature to accelerate drying, nor does he use light roasting to increase fragrance.

Over the years we have stocked many of Master Feng’s white teas. Due to the size of his production, our supply is always very limited. Do email us to learn more and check our stock levels.
