Description

Our Masters Collection premium Fujian Silver Needle, or Bai Hao Yin Zhen, is made with fine silvery down bearing buds from carefully reared tea bushes in the Fuding area of Fujian, China. Handpicked, this precious white tea shows the care and skill of the proud farmers. In the cup, these extra-fine Silver Needle buds offer a buttery-creamy mouthfeel and wonderfully sweet, honeydew melon notes with a creamy cucumber lingering finish.
