Description
Silver Needle White Tea (“Bai Hao Yin Zen”) is a white tea cultivated and processed in the Yunan Province of China. This tea is made from the tender buds on the tea plant. When processed, these buds are reduced to a needle-like tea (hence the name) covered in tiny white fuzzy hairs.
Our Silver Needle White Tea has a very pure, clear, unadulterated flavor that is simple and uncomplicated. It’s almost like nature is savored in a sip of this tea. For first-time Silver Needle drinkers, that first sip can be pretty emotional. 

Processing : Withering--Sorting--Fixing
The tea leaf pickers bring all of the tea buds to a processing house, where the tea is prepared before going to market. 
Withering
The tea leaves are spread out onto a bamboo tray and laid out in the sun for three days to oxidize. 
Sorting
The withered tea leaves are hand-tossed into the air from a bamboo tray to sort the small leaves from the large ones. The larger the leaf, the higher the grade and the price. 
Fixing
The tea leaves are now baked in wok-like pans over charcoal fires. The tea makers are vigilant to prevent the fire from smoking because it would cause a shift in the flavor of the tea. Once the tea leaves are done baking, they are dried and go on to be packaged or stored for aging.

Recommended Preparation
1. Water temperature : 90°C (194°F)
2. Ratio of tea to water : 1:50, 2grams tea with 100ml water
3. Brew time: 3 minutes
4. It would be nice to put some honey in it, a delicious rose tea.
When you get down to about one quarter of the tea remaining, refill with hot water of the same temperature as before and let it steep for 30 seconds to one minute.
You can get 2-3 infusions. Increase the steeping time 30 seconds to one minute for each infusion. How many infusions you do depends entirely on your taste.
