silver sampler

A wonderful introduction to the wide range of white teas. Each sample makes about 5 cups of tea. This set includes (though subject to infrequent change):

snowbud - Airy, light tea, very delicate body, with a clean, barely sweet aroma and effervescent texture.
white symphony - A delicate tea made from tea buds collected and withered prior to opening. It create a pale yellow, light bodied, yet complex cup with hints of honeydew and a faint floral sweetness.
jasmine silver needle - Softly sweet nuances of Silver Needle enhanced with jasmine. Airy flavor, delicate mouthfeel and pleasantly dry finish.
silver needle - Pale, ivory colored liquor. Delicately honeysuckle floral, with a warmed sugar sweetness.

sampler set contains

snowbud - White tea from the Fujian province of China. An airy, light tea, which yields a cup worthy of its name: very delicate body, with a clean, barely sweet aroma and effervescent texture. Snowbud is composed of only the newest leaves and buds, all gathered and dried in the early days of spring. Of all the teas we offer, our Snowbud is the lightest one. If you enjoy the subtle, gentle taste of white tea, we hope you'll give this one a try.
white symphony - An exquisite version of the White Peony variety, this is a delicate tea made from unopened leaf buds and the newest two leaves to open on the tea bush. For White Symphony, many more buds are included than is typical for classic White Peony. The liquor is very light, similar to Silver Needles. But the flavor is much more complex: faintly floral, warm and sugary like honeydew or white nectarine. Soft mouthfeel and clean, uplifting finish. If you've been enjoying White Peony, we invite you to savor this more refined version.
jasmine silver needle - Young and elegant tea leaf buds with a whisper of jasmine aura. All the appeal and softly sweet nuances of a classic Silver Needle tea, enhanced with the aroma of night-blooming jasmine flowers. Airy flavor, delicate mouthfeel and pleasantly dry finish. The quiet nature of this tea ensures it will make a gentle companion for your special moments.
silver needle - White tea from China. Silver Needle is among the most revered of Chinese teas, produced in the Fuding and Zhenhe districts of its Fujian province. Gathered only for a few days in early spring, a dedication to perfection is evident in the pale, ivory colored liquor. The lingering fragrance is delicately honeysuckle floral, with a warmed sugar sweetness. Refreshing texture that is soft and airy on the palate. This is a special grade ('Bai Hao') version of this exquisite tea.

Win a gift of formosa pouchong 2.1oz
A rare, very green oolong tea from Taiwan. Pouchong is the most lightly oxidized of all oolong teas - just 8-10%. In Taiwan, this tea is extremely valued and celebrated for its aroma - as one tea master said, if theres no fragrance, its not worth the effort! Our Masters Pouchong starts with a deep, inviting sugary-floral nose. The bright, pale golden-green liquor has a soft, melting butter texture, uplifting floral notes and mild, succulent flavo... read more...
