Silver Needles

Regular price

Silver Needles is a premium white tea and one of the most revered styles in the category. Originating from Fujian, China, it is distinguished by the fine, silvery-white hairs—or trichomes—covering the young tea buds. Made exclusively from these unopened buds, Silver Needles is celebrated for its natural sweetness, as the buds are rich in sugars that fuel leaf development. They also contain the highest concentration of caffeine in the tea plant, serving as a natural defense against insects.

Origin: Fujian, China
Process: White
Notes: Floral, Velvety, Pear

Brewing instructions are included on the tin.

The processing method is simple yet precise: the buds are first withered in the shade for several days, then sun-dried when weather allows—or gently oven-dried as a backup. The result is a delicate tea with floral and pear-like notes and a smooth, velvety body.
