The Tale of White Tea of the Court

In the era when emperors ruled from palaces veiled in morning mist, there was a legend whispered among the mandarins of the royal court. It spoke of a tea so pure, its fragrance could calm the restless heart and clear the clouded mind a gift reserved only for those who served with unwavering wisdom.

At the heart of this legend was a young scholar named Thanh Vân. One spring dawn, as the palace bells echoed across jade-green ponds, Thanh Vân was summoned by the Empress herself. She sought a potion that could bring clarity to the court and serenity to her soul.

Guided by the wisdom of his ancestors, Thanh Vân ventured into the imperial gardens. There, beneath the shade of ancient cedars, he gathered the first flush of white tea delicate and luminous as morning dew. Alongside it, he plucked mate leaves, their spirit lively and invigorating.

Returning to his chamber, Thanh Vân blended the white tea and mate, letting their essence rise like a gentle breeze. Into the heart of his brew, he added ginseng for strength, green tea for harmony, and a zest of lime for brightness - each ingredient chosen with the care of a poet’s brushstroke.

As the aroma filled the air, he finished his creation with a base of ambroxan, vetiver, and cedarwood notes that grounded the fragrance in the quiet power of the earth and the enduring wisdom of the forest.

When the Empress sipped the tea and breathed in its scent, her worries faded like mist before the sun. The court, too, found peace and clarity, their minds sharpened and their spirits lifted.

Thus, White Tea of the Court was born - a perfume woven from the threads of ancient wisdom, pure intentions, and the tranquil heart of Việt Nam. It is said that those who wear this fragrance will walk with the calm of the scholar and the grace of the Empress, forever guided by the gentle strength of white tea.
