White Nectar is our Shou Mei (寿眉) white tea from Fujian, pressed into six individual biscuit-shaped pieces (approx. 25–28g total per tin). Shou Mei uses leaves that are larger than White Peony or Silver Needles — the trade-off is a more robust, brisk character with a hay-like quality and a honey-sweetness that comes through especially when brewed with hotter water.

Each tin features original artwork inspired by Tasmanian wildlife and native plants — choose from designs including Platypus, Wombat & Cub, Superb Fairy-wren, and Waratah & Bee. The tea inside is the same regardless of which design you pick, so go with whichever one you like best. It's one of our most approachable white teas and the tin makes it a thoughtful gift — the packaging does the work for you.

How it tastes

Brisk and fresh with a hay-like note, similar to Gong Mei but with a bit more body from the larger leaves. There's a mild sweetness that develops as you move through infusions. The individual pieces make portioning easy — one piece per gongfu session, or break one in half for a western-style brew.

A note from Joanne: "We made this as an affordable entry into white tea that also works as a gift. The biscuit shape means you just break off what you need — no measuring required. People often buy a few different tin designs at once for gifts."

Available at our Salamanca Tea Bar — come try before you buy.

Brewing instructions

Western brewing:
Use 1.5g of tea per 250ml teapot with 85-90°C (185-194°F) water. Steep for 3 minutes per infusion, allowing up to 3 infusions.

Gongfu brewing:
1 piece per 150ml gaiwan or teapot. Pre-warm the vessel. 95°C water, steep 40 seconds for the first 3 infusions, add 10 seconds from the fourth. Up to 6 infusions.

A note on weight

Each piece is hand-pressed in Fujian and naturally varies a little in size and weight. Pressed white tea also loses a small amount of moisture over time as part of its normal aging process, and drier climates like Tasmania's can speed that along. The weight listed is what you can expect to find in the tin. If yours seems noticeably off, drop us a line and we'll sort it out.

Storage

Store in the tin or an airtight container in a cool, dark place. Like other white teas, this will continue to mellow with time.

If you enjoy this, our Gong Mei White Tea 2020 is a similar style in loose-leaf form. Looking for something more delicate? Try our Silver Needles.

Worthless. Tore on first use.
Flavor Name: XL silicone socks 2 pairs
The first time I put these on my feet, the whole toe broke right through. They were a proper fit and my feet are well pedicured. Just very poor quality. I don’t recommend.

Search no further, these are the BEST! They are smazing at conforming to the shape of your feet. They fit snuggly with no sags/bags or uncomfortable pressure or squeezing of your toes.

Helps dry, cracked feet
Flavor Name: XL silicone socks 2 pairs
We use these on my husband’s cracked feet in the winter and put on a thick cream under these socks. They are nice because hair, dirt and that kind of stuff doesn’t stick to the outside. I do wish them came in more sizes and colors. They were a little small for my husband, but still worked good enough. My husband isn’t thrilled about wearing pink socks around the house. At least it’s just around the house and not out in public though.

Be aware! Once they are on, do not walk! 😂
Flavor Name: XL silicone socks 2 pairs
I absolutely love these things. But the first time I put them on in the living room. The walk to my bedroom was VERY interesting 😂😂😂 I now know I need to put them on and hang out for a bit, or simply go to bed. They do exactly what I need them to do. Feet feel great afterwards! With the right lotion, only need to use one every couple of weeks.

Transformed my feet
Flavor Name: XL silicone socks 2 pairs
After trying several other brands that actually my size did not have the luxury feeling of these. T although x large they have the BEST feel and function. I put lotion on then slip them on and within a few minutes my dry cracked heals are soft. Really a nice product.
