'' 'Gong Mei''' is a [[white tea]] made of the [[Da Bai]] subvarietal of [[Camellia sinensis]]. It is grown mainly in the provinces of Fujian and Guangxi in China. Because this tea is harvested later than [[Bai Mu Dan]] it's liquor is slightly darker in color and stronger in taste. The infusion is golden yellow and thus darker than other white teas. Gong Mei is sometimes also referred as [[Shou Mei]] although the latter is considered as fourth grade quality while Gong Mei is a third quality grade tea.
