Organic White Tea China Downy Silver Needle: A Pure Expression of Nature

Discover the unparalleled purity and delicate complexity of our Organic White Tea China Downy Silver Needle. Sourced from the pristine, high-altitude gardens of Guanxi province, China, this exquisite tea offers a truly sublime sensory experience and a wealth of natural health benefits.

The Essence of Purity: From Mountain to Cup

Our Downy Silver Needle stands as a testament to meticulous cultivation and artisanal processing. Grown organically at an elevation of 1,000 meters, far from pollutants, the tea plants thrive in an environment that naturally fosters exceptional flavour and aroma. The harvest is a precise art, occurring only for a brief window from the end of March to the beginning of April.

During this precious time, only the most tender, unopened leaf buds – still covered in their delicate, silvery-white down – are skillfully plucked by hand. This painstaking selective harvesting ensures that only the purest essence of the tea plant makes it into your cup.

Following the harvest, the journey of our Downy Silver Needle continues with an equally gentle and precise processing method. The freshly plucked buds undergo a natural withering process, allowing their moisture content to slowly reduce and their unique characteristics to develop. Unlike other tea types, white tea undergoes minimal processing.

After withering, it is carefully dried at low temperatures, sometimes more than once, to preserve its delicate structure and inherent sweetness. This minimal intervention is key to unlocking the tea's naturally smooth texture and its remarkably mellow, floral, and subtly fruity notes. Each sip offers a serene escape, a whisper of spring, and a taste of nature's untouched perfection.

Prepare to be captivated by the delicate qualities of our Organic White Tea, China Downy Silver Needle. When brewed, it produces a pale, luminous liquor that shimmers with a clear, golden hue. The tea offers a light, ethereal fragrance with hints of fresh blossoms and a touch of sweet hay. 

Experience an incredibly smooth and silky mouthfeel, followed by a symphony of gentle flavours. Mellow floral notes, reminiscent of honeysuckle or orchids, intertwine gracefully with a subtle yet distinct fruity sweetness, evoking flavours of ripe pear or melon. The finish is clean, refreshing, and remarkably long-lasting, leaving a delightful lingering sweetness on the palate.
