Description

Our Silver Needle is the epitome of premium white teas. Only the downy buds are dried to make this premium white tea. 

Tavalon's Silver Needle White Tea epitomises the pinnacle of tea craftsmanship, carefully handcrafted from the youngest, silvery-white buds of the tea plant. As one of China's most iconic teas, Silver Needle is considered the "highest grade" for good reason. Its flavour profile is a delicate yet full of complexity, offering hints of fruity, floral, herbal and grassy. This tea awakens the senses with its smooth elegance and an energetic quality that can revitalise even the weariest soul.

Unique among teas, Silver Needle is crafted exclusively from the buds, which are bursting with the essence of the tea plant. However, their tiny size and labour-intensive harvest mean that thousands of buds are required to produce just one kilogram. This rarity and dedication to purity make this white tea a true treasure.
