Description

This 2025 Silver Needle originates from Fuding, the renowned birthplace of China’s finest white teas. Only early-spring single buds are selected — thick, straight, and fully covered in shimmering white hairs, resembling fine silver spears.

To illustrate its preciousness:
1 gram contains ~38–40 buds,
5g for one session = about 200 buds,
500g requires ~20,000 hand-plucked buds.
Every cup is the result of skill, patience, and spring’s earliest vitality.

The liquor is bright apricot-gold, smooth and pure. Floral notes rise like fresh orchid, followed by soft honeyed peach and gentle creaminess unique to high-grade Silver Needle. The taste is clean, sweet, and long-lingering with zero astringency. As the tea ages, sweetness deepens, offering exceptional potential for long-term storage.
