Flavor Profile
What does Mu Dan Wang taste like?
Mu Dan Wang, or White Peony King, is a high-grade Bai Mu Dan made from fuller bud sets picked in early spring. The cup is richer than standard White Peony: pronounced honey sweetness, orchid florals, and a silky, fuller body with a long, cooling finish. The leaves unfurl slowly over several infusions, gaining depth as they open. It offers a step up in refinement without the delicacy demanded by Silver Needle.
