Where does Shou Mei sit in the white tea range?
White Tea is offered in four grades; Shou Mei is listed fourth (plucking standard: Mature leaf, later plucking). Grade names fix pluck and origin; the cup is then decided by finishing, which the contract must state.
The four-grade ladder: Bai Hao Yin Zhen · Bai Mu Dan · Gong Mei · Shou Mei. The full comparison table sits on Weißer Tee; every export grade is indexed under all 28 grades.
What must a Shou Mei contract specify?
Beyond the code Shou Mei itself: the plucking standard (mature leaf, later plucking), moisture at or below 7,0%, a broken-and-fannings ceiling, the residue standard named by destination jurisdiction — for Russia that is EAEU TR CU 021/2011 and TR CU 022/2011, the packing net weight and the Incoterm. Finishing decides the cup once pluck and origin are fixed, so roast, smoke or scenting rounds belong in the contract where they apply. Residue is the clause that stops containers at destination and the one most often left generic.
The line's full trade specification is on the printable white tea specification sheet.
