Silver Needle White Tea 100gm
Silver Needle White Tea (Bai Hao Yin Zhen) is one of the most revered of Chinese teas, produced in the Fuding and Zhenhe districts of its Fujian province. This delicate tea is harvested before the tea plant's leaves open fully, when the young buds are still covered by fine white hairs. The lingering fragrance of our Halda Valley Silver Needle White Tea is delicately honeysuckle floral, with a warmed sugar sweetness and soft mouthfeel and uplifting finish. Silver Needle White Tea feels refreshing, soft and airy on the palate, perfect to enjoy in multiple infusions. More caffeine than green tea: The leaves of the Camellia sinensis plant will always contain caffeine. So, whether you drink white, green, yellow, Oolong, black, or Pu-erh, all of them will provide a pick-me-up assuming they’re not the decaffeinated (which still contain a little bit too). Appearance: Buds are large, fat, and covered in pale silvery-white fuzz or “down”. Aroma: Light, sweet, and floral, like fresh wildflowers with a hint of honey. Flavor: Smooth, light, fresh, and slightly sweet, without much astringency. Sometimes has a juicy or even citrus undertone reminiscent of tangerine or mandarin orange. Color: Beautiful sliver white color. How to steep: Pre-heat your cup with hot water. Then pour the water out. Fill the cup with 80°C (176°F) hot water. Let the tea steep for 3 minutes. Drink when most of the leaves have sunk to the bottom of the cup. You can get 3-5 infusions out of Halda Valley Dragon Well Green Tea. Caution: Halda Valley Dragon Well Green Tea have small, tender leaves that are sensitive to high water temperature. If infused for too long under boiling water, they will taste bitter and their antioxidants will break down. Why It’s only for you?For the average Westerner, much of this interest is focused on ancient claims related to weight loss and more modern claims of cancer-prevention due to tea’s anti-oxidant properties. Each person must make their own assessment of the facts. While there are centuries of tradition and empirical evidence from Traditional Chinese Medicine, there is little modern scientific consensus that supports the health benefits of tea. Even the effect of anti-oxidants to prevent anything has recently been drawn sharply into focus.
