Chinese White Tea - Dragon Phoenix Pearl

This is our most exotic tea. Picked during April and May, only the top 2 leaves and a bud are used. They are stored until August until the most fragrant jasmine flowers are in bloom. Jasmine flowers open at night releasing their intoxicating scent. The delicate tea leaves and buds are introduced to the jasmine flowers each evening for about a week after which the flowers are discarded. The tea leaves, having absorbed the scent, are then hand rolled into tiny pearl shaped balls.
To best appreciate this exquisite tea, we recommend brewing it in the cup. Pour boiling water into a cup and allow to cool slightly. Add around ten pearls to the water. After 3 or 4 minutes the leaves will unfurl and drop to the bottom releasing their wonderful flavour and aroma.

Chinese White Tea - Pai Mu Tan

After the highly prized top two leaves and buds have been harvested for Special Silver Needle, the remaining leaves and silver buds are picked for Pai Mu Tan. Production is the same as for Silver Needle. These virtually weightless leaves produce a tea that is both elegant, aromatic and health promoting. Don't try to measure this tea with a teaspoon, you will need two tablespoons per cup.

Chinese White Tea - Snow Buds (Xue Ya)

Snow Buds (Xue Ya) is a rare white tea grown on the high mountain peaks of northern Fujian Province. The hand harvested one leaf and a bud is covered with a silvery white down that is indicative of a fine quality white tea. Taste is surprisingly full flavored and smooth with nuances of both green and white tea. Use 2 heaped teaspoons per cup and steep for 3 to 4 minutes in 75° water

Chinese White Tea - White Dragon

A very high quality white tea from Yunnan Province. Many silver tips are in evidence. The flavour is delicate but distinctively Yunnan. A connoisseur's tea. Use 2 heaped teaspoons per cup and steep for 4 minutes in 75° water
