White Teas

Named to reference the tiny white hairs on the new buds and leaves, there are two main styles of white tea - Bai Mu Dan (White Peony) and Bai Hao Yin Zhen (Silver Needle). Silver needle teas are handpicked, comprising of the closed buds only and it can take more than 10,000 buds to produce a kilo of tea. 
 
White tea was originally only grown in China, but is now grown in India and elsewhere. White teas are produced by withering and drying, allowing minimal oxidation. 
 
Enjoy a traditional gourmet loose white tea offering, or explore Bai Mu Dan flavored with peach, enhanced with raspberries, or enlivened with rose and lavender.
