Description
Origin of Authentic White Tea
Sourced from Fuding in Fujian Province—the birthplace of white tea—this premium Silver Needle represents the highest standard of traditional craftsmanship. Harvested in early spring, it reflects the purity and heritage of one of China’s most revered tea regions.
Finest Bud-Only Selection
Made exclusively from tender, unopened buds of the Fuding Da Bai tea variety, this tea is graded as first-class Silver Needle. Carefully picked at peak freshness, the buds are plump, downy, and rich in natural nutrients that define its exceptional quality.
Traditional Sun-Dried Craft
Processed using time-honored sun-drying methods, the tea undergoes gentle withering and drying without heavy intervention. This preserves its natural character, resulting in a clean, pure profile that highlights the essence of the leaf.
Delicate and Refined Flavor
The infusion offers a soft floral aroma paired with a light honey-like sweetness. Its texture is smooth, fresh, and refreshing, with a subtle elegance that unfolds gradually, making it ideal for slow and mindful enjoyment.
Freshness and Aging Potential
Silver Needle is prized for both immediate enjoyment and long-term aging. While its vibrant freshness is best appreciated when young, careful storage allows it to develop deeper, more complex notes over time, appealing to collectors and enthusiasts alike.
Brewing Recommendations
Use water at 194–203°F (90–95°C) with a ratio of 1g tea per 25ml of water. Steep for 30 seconds initially, adding 5 seconds for each subsequent infusion. Brew in a white porcelain gaiwan and pour gently along the side to protect the delicate buds. This tea can be re-steeped 5–7 times.
Storage Guidance
For short-term storage, keep the tea sealed in airtight pouches away from light, moisture, and odors. For long-term preservation, use layered packaging and store in a cool, dry environment below 77°F (25°C) with low humidity. Proper storage ensures the tea maintains its quality and aging potential.
A Tea for Purity Seekers
With its light body and subtle complexity, Silver Needle is best suited for those who appreciate delicate, natural flavors. It may not appeal to those who prefer strong, bold teas or add milk and sugar, but for purists, it offers a uniquely शांत and refined experience.
