Silver Needle

White Tea by Zhi Tea

The finest early spring plucking of the spring buds; only harvested for a few days each year. This is the highest grade organic white tea and has won numerous awards at the global level; a supremely flavorful silver needle.

Silver Needle is among the most revered of Chinese teas, produced in the Fuding and Zhenhe districts of Fujian province. This premium tea is produced at the strictest quality standards. This dedication to perfection is apparent in the cup, which is sweet and delicate with an angelic fragrance. Award winning Bai Hao Yin Zhen Special Grade.

Parden me while I rant on this one a while, This is one of the best teas I have ever had. Simple, elegant, with such a pleasant life giving influence. It tasted best after I let it cool down a bit. After I enjoyed the first cup, I could sense a gentle warming of my mind, lifting the fog. The second cup brings the delightful satisfaction of a good cup of tea. Highly recommend this one.

I’m a very big Silver Needles fan and I second Simple’s comment- I couldn’t of stated the description any better.
