canton silver needle
Jinggu, Yunnan Province, China.
Silver Needle is beautiful as it’s made only from tender, young, silvery leaf buds, which are withered in the sun. This tea is chosen from a small batch grown on Jinggu Mountain in Yunnan Province in China and has a full-bodied flavour for a white tea. The buds are large, plump, succulent and irresistible.
Ingredients: White tea (Camellia sinensis var. sinensis ‘Da Bai Hao’)
