Golden Thread Orchid (Anoectochilus Roxburghii) White Tea is a wellness tea that blends the rare medicinal plant Anoectochilus roxburghii (commonly known as "Golden Thread Orchid") with aged Fuding white tea.
Anoectochilus roxburghii, also known as the "Golden Silk Thread," is a perennial herb of the Orchidaceae family that has been revered since ancient times as a precious medicinal and edible plant. The entire herb can be used in medicine, offering traditional benefits such as clearing heat, cooling the blood, removing dampness, and detoxification. Due to its rarity and unique value, it was included in the List of National Key Protected Wild Plants in 2021 and is currently classified as a National Class II protected plant. Rich in polysaccharides, flavonoids, amino acids, and various trace elements, it possesses excellent antioxidant and immune-regulating properties, earning it the reputation of "Forest Gold."
Fuding White Tea is celebrated by the adage: "Tea in the first year, medicine in the third, and a treasure by the seventh." Due to its natural processing and low fermentation, white tea preserves the maximum amount of active substances, such as tea polyphenols, flavonoids, and various vitamins. After years of aging, "Aged White Tea" becomes more mellow and gentle in nature, offering a sweet, smooth mouthfeel and soothing properties. In daily consumption, it helps promote digestion, balance the body and mind, and enhance the overall tea-drinking experience. As it ages, the tea gradually develops a unique profile of medicinal, jujube (red date), and woody aromas that are rich and long-lasting.
