Darjeeling Silver Needle
$8.00
Though black tea accounts for 99% of tea production in Darjeeling, some tea craftsmen are producing luxurious, delicious and rare white teas in the region. This Darjeeling Silver Needle is unlike any white tea you have tasted before. Once steeped the wet leaf has an interesting miso-like, rich mushroom broth aroma; the pale golden ivory liquid will absolutely surprise your taste buds with its light sweetness. The infusion is complex, refreshing, yet with umami richness; it has a velvety smooth mouth feel, soft floral note, with fresh flavors of hay and light honey.
Sold in 1 oz. Multiples.
