This splendid piece of beauty is cultivated at altitudes of 3900 to 6900 feet (1,200 - 2,100 m) and is produced by hand. As opposed to the many other “light” white teas, this tea will surprise you with some body and exceptional flavor nuances in the infusion. Subtle hints of elegant and floral aromas interact with smooth, fruity citrus notes. Superb! The leaf is expressive and anthracite-colored with many plush, silvery leaf tips. Recommended for tea gourmets!
The Silver Needle white tea is from the north of the Fujian province, where white tea was produced for the first time. At altitudes between 2,800 and 3,300 feet (850–1.000 m), this exquisite quality is grown and only the budding leaf is plucked. The climate and soil conditions, early morning fog and a good amount of sunshine in the afternoon are optimal growth conditions for this unique tea. The bright, slightly rose-colored cup develops a soft fragrance and a tender taste on the tongue reminiscent of apricots.
Pai Mu Tan is the best known specialty within the white tea category and is finding more and more fans all over the world. A tea plant called Chaicha or Narcissus grows in the province of Fujian and is also known as “White Peony”. After plucking, the tea is dried in the sun or in closed rooms without further technical aid. The leaf shows many shades of green and is quite voluminous with different structures and a nice portion of long, silverywhite leaf tips. The cup color is light with a shimmering amber tone and the taste is elegant and uplifting.
You must see and enjoy this heavenly tea. The light blend of high-quality green teas and the finest white tea provides a fantastic, flowery base which is unique in appearance. The fruity flavors of passion fruit, pineapple and strawberry form a perfect symbiosis with the base. The fruit pieces and blossoms add to the attraction.
Exquisite green and white teas of different shapes and sizes will delight your senses. Deep green, big silvery brown and fluffy white tipped tea leaves are accompanied by yellow rosebuds, red rose petals and purple mallow blossoms to create a soft yet predominant green tea. The aromatic bouquet composed of exotic fruits, of light, tangy, fresh citrus nuances and a hint of delicate, flowery jasmine promises a very special pleasure in combination with the flavors of oriental spices.
