White Teas

White tea can be any cultivar (varietal) from Camillia sinensis. The process after plucking defines white tea—which is that almost nothing is done to the tea leaf after it is picked. After plucking, the leaves (or just the unfurled buds) are brought back to the processing facility and laid out to whither and naturally air dry. In some cases, because this tea is not de-enzymed like green tea, it may have some slight oxidation due to incidental bruising in transport. The flavor ranges from very light and mild to slightly toasty—depending on the cultivar and whether any bruising occurred.

White Jasmine Silver Needle

An absolutely stunning tea…lightly scented with jasmine allowing the full flavor of Silver Needle to blend beautifully.  This is one of our most popular teas.

white-peony

White Peony Supreme

Also known as Bai Mu Dan. A delicate tea made from tea buds collected and withered prior to opening. It offers a preponderance of unopened leaf buds that create a pale yellow, light bodied, yet complex cup with hints of honeydew and a faint floral sweetness.

Silver-Needle

Silver Needle

White tea from China. Silver Needle is among the most revered of Chinese teas, produced in the Fuding and Zhenhe districts of Fujian province. Gathered only in the few days of early spring, the preparation of this tea is governed by strict requirements to ensure a premium product. This dedication to perfection is evident in the cup, which is sweet and delicate with a clean, airy fragrance. Our ‘Sublime Needle’ is a Special Grade (Bai Hao) version of this exquisite tea.
