Known in China as Xin Gong Yi Bai Cha, literally “white tea processed with new technology”, named after a new cultivar of the same name developed in Fu Ding in 1968. Processing differs from conventional white teas by adding an intermediate step of fine leaf rolling (rou nian). As a result, the leaves break more which allows them to oxidize more before they are fully dried.
