Description

Glenburn Silver Needle originates from the Glenburn Estate located in the Himalayas above the Rungeet River in India. The Glenburn Estate is working closely with the board of the Ethical Tea Partnership, which focuses on sustainability and living and working conditions of those working at tea estates, to bring the ETP to the Darjeeling region and is focused on maintaining high ethical standards. Our Glenburn Silver Needle is malty yet also very sweet. Hay, almond, and juicy peach notes are prominent; however, floral and citrus notes can also be detected. This tea has a rich buttery flavor and creamy texture that lingers long after each sip. For those looking for a great introduction to white teas, we highly recommend Glenburn Silver Needle because it is very flavorful.
