One type of tea product PTPN-IX that has not been studied physically, chemically and its characteristics is white tea. This study aims to examine the characteristics of white tea produced by PTPN-IX in Brebes. This research was carried out at the request of the PTPN-IX, the methodology used was to test some of the core components contained in white tea, some tests were carried out 3 times and the average value was taken. The components tested included: ash content, crude fiber, Pb/Cu/Zn/Hg content, total plate count, coliform, water content, carbohydrates, protein, pectin, tannins and caffeine. The results showed that white tea produced by PTPN-IX were: ash content of 5.70%; Crude fiber 13.40% ; Pb 2.35 mg/Kg ; Cu 12.94 mg/Kg ; Zn 22.30 mg/Kg ; Hg ( negative ) ; Total plate number 1.3 x 103 efu/g ; Coliform (negative). For chemical components, the results are: water 5.65%; carbohydrates 3.9% ; 18% protein; pectin 5.85% ; tannins 5.25% ; caffeine 2.4 – 4.5
