      Are there grades for Bai Mudan white tea or can you just go into any tea shop in mainland China and say you want Bai Mudan. I will have a translator, but that person knows nothing about teas.

      yes different grades but many shops lie about real grades. also different styles. some not real bai mu dan. many sell sou mei or green tea as bai mu dan. not same taste. not same tea. u read leo writing about it.

      That’s right. In some shops even cheap restaurant grades Sau Mei are sold as White Peony.

      The best in Zhenghe style is called Mudan Wang, the best in Fuding style is called Yesheng Cha. Yesheng means wild. I doubt it really is that, but that’s the name anyway. Some others say Tezhong, meaning special type. What Leo and Chawang said is very true, some shops just give you whatever they want to call it.
