Silver Needle Yunnan white tea - 50 g

Silver Needle white tea is produced from an unusual shrub variety, Camelia Taliensis. 

This tea was wilted for a short time (light oxidation) and then dried quickly with hot air. 

The tea is light but enveloping and rich. 

For lovers of bud-picked white tea, this unusual tea is elegant and special. 

The scent is fresh and seductive and the taste is a heady mix of sweet ripe melon and the woody essence of a forest after the spring rain.   Place of Origin: Tang Te Village, Jinggu County, Puer (Simao) Prefecture, Yunnan Province, China.   Production: The best productions come from the first harvests, which generally take place between the end of March and the beginning of April: only the leaf and the buds are harvested for the production of this tea. 

The ideal time is a sunny morning, when the sun is high enough to have dried any residual moisture on the buds.   Ingredients: white tea.
