Product Description
This Silver Needle white tea from Fujian, China, is made with 100% tender early-spring buds. Natural sweetness and delicate floral notes meet a light, silky texture and a clean finish.
Picking and Craft
The buds are handpicked in early spring. Bud-only picking, gentle withering, and slow, low-temperature drying keep the processing minimal and let the character of the white tea come through.
