Special Grade Custom Silver Needle & Red Globe Amaranth Flower / Antioxidant-Rich / A ‘Pearl of a White Tea’ from the Tai Mu hills/Fujian Province in Southern China.
The tippy ‘Silver Needles’ of this tea are picked only a few days a year. The gentle ‘steaming and drying’ process in the open air allows the White Tea to create its sweet and fresh aroma and soft taste.
The Silver Needles are tied together in the shape of a button and hold a red Amaranth flower in the center. During the infusion the button will open and expose the red flower. This ‘Entertainment Tea’ is prized for its special flavor.
Only small amounts of the tips are harvested and made available to the market.
The infusion is clear and pale. Serve as a healthy, cleansing and refreshing all-day tea or as an ‘Entertainment Tea’ at dinner parties.
Theine (caffeine) content: Very low
