Silver Needle Jasmine from Primatea

Silver Needle Jasmine

White Tea by Primatea

This quiet tea makes a cosy companion for special moments. The classic Silver Needle White tea produced in the Fuding and Zhenhe regions of China is blended with fresh and aromatic night blooming jasmine flowers to create an elegant blend. Young buds covered with soft white down are picked up early in the spring, wilted, and minimally oxidized. The soft and subtle silver needle whispers a floral jasmine aura. Low caffeine nature of the tea coupled with soothing jasmine makes it an extremely effective relaxant and mood enhancer. Tastes flavorful without any sugar or sweetener, and is very easy going on the palate. It has a light nutty taste, just ideal for a gourmet dessert tea.

I really like white teas. I also really like jasmine teas. I have never had a silver needle jasmine before, so I have no other similar teas to compare this to.

As my co-worker noted, this tea smells like “the fresh smell when you are a kid running through a field.” I don’t think I could have said it any better. It has a very pleasant “fresh” smell to it.

I absolutely love how this tea tastes. It is very light, and has a strong jasmine taste.

Mmmm…this is good.
