Silver Needle (Yin Zhen) is considered the rarest and most famous Chinese white tea, composed entirely of individual buds, picked in early spring in Fuding County of Fujian province.
The fragrance is light, akin to freshly bloomed flowers. The flavor is more juicy than dry, filling the mouth with a smooth and lingering sweetness.
For first time tea drinkers and seasoned connoiseurs alike, Silver Needle is a very approachable tea. It is easier on the stomach than a green tea and even a long infusion in high temperature water will not make the flavor bitter.
You will find it very easy to drink and very easy to brew.
Brewing Guidelines: 1 tbs tea per 12 oz 70 degree water for 3-5 minutes. At least four infusions may be drunk.
