Description

Silver Needle, or Bai Hao Yinzhen, stands as a pinnacle of white tea, originating from the revered tea fields of Fujian Province in China. This tea, known for its elegance and purity, is made exclusively from the tender top buds of the tea plant, harvested in the cool freshness of early spring. These buds, covered in a fine, silvery down, give the tea its name and its distinctive, delicate appearance. The meticulous handpicking process ensures that only the finest buds are selected, emphasizing the tea’s premium quality and the artisanal skill involved in its creation. The production of Silver Needle is characterized by a minimalistic approach, focusing on preserving the natural qualities of the tea. After picking, the buds undergo a gentle drying process, avoiding oxidation to maintain their natural color, subtle flavors, and high antioxidant levels. This careful preservation results in a tea that is as visually stunning as it is healthful, offering a brew that is clear and light, with a pale, golden color that speaks to its refined nature. Upon tasting, Silver Needle (Bai Hao Yinzhen) delights with a delicate, yet nuanced, flavor profile. It carries a mild sweetness reminiscent of honey or melon, complemented by slight floral undertones and a clean, refreshing aftertaste for Direct Sourcing from India Please Visit
