Superfine Silver Needle White Tea

 

Origin and Characteristics

  • Origin: Superfine Silver Needle White Tea is primarily produced in Fujian Province, China, especially in the Fuding and Zhenghe regions, renowned for their white tea production.
  • Characteristics: It consists exclusively of young tea buds, hand-picked during a short period in early spring. These buds are covered with fine, silvery-white hairs, giving them a needle-like appearance.

 

Processing

  • Picking: The tea buds are meticulously hand-picked, usually before they fully open, ensuring they are young and tender.
  • Withering: The buds undergo a natural withering process, where they are spread out to dry slightly and reduce moisture content.
  • Drying: The withered buds are then carefully dried at low temperatures to preserve their delicate nature. This minimal processing helps retain the tea's natural flavor and aroma.


Health Benefits

  • Antioxidant Properties: Helps to neutralize free radicals and support overall health.
  • Boosts Immune System: Enhances immune function and helps to combat infections.
  • Promotes Skin Health: Supports healthy skin and may reduce signs of aging.
  • Calming Effects: Contains theanine, which promotes relaxation and reduces stress.


Brew Instruction:

Brewing tool: cups, bottles, tea wears, tea bags

Water temperature: 160° - 170° F

Amount of tea: 1 teaspoon

Amount of water: 6-10 oz.

Steeping time: put the hot water into the cup with the  tea, stirring the tea will make the tea flavor come out faster, stir about 20-50 seconds for the first cup, strain it out. Later if you want more tea, put more water back in the cup, steep for another 30-50 seconds, then strain it. This amount of tea leaves will make 3-4 cups of tea.

Drinking tips:

  • We suggest drinking the green tea 30minutes-60minutes after meal. Drinking too soon after the meal, the tea will reactor with the nutrients of the food, especially the iron and protein. So if you have anemia, do not drink green tea, black tea, oolong tea, and pu-erh tea.
