Description

Shenya Silver Needle is a luxury green variety of Yin Zhen tea. It is a limited, organic pre-Qing Ming Jie early spring harvested tea. It is grown and produced in the northern district of Fujian province in China, high in the mountains giving the leaf a deep silvery-sage green color. 

A beloved Chinese delicacy, the world is just beginning to appreciate this fine treasure! The early harvest only lasts a few days, the picking is only premium, thick, whole, young buds. It has become increasingly difficult to enjoy outside of China, as it is available only for a brief period in the spring and the Chinese market enjoys most of the crop. 

Our luxury young silver needle tea is delicate, a refined tea-drinkingexperience. Once steeped, its liquor is pale golden; at first sip, it has a slightly savory note with a clean and sweet finish, a woodsy fragrance that complements its light body.

It has the delicacy of white tea with that green tea tase. Not surprised China snaps up most of the crop. For the price it's just incredible!

I quite like this tea. As others have noted, it reminds me of a white tea. Very well balanced with no flavor notes dominating.
