[Silver Needle | 白毫银针 | báiháo yínzhēn ]
Moonlit's first white tea! This premium brew features young, cherry-picked tea buds that were slowly sun dried to perfection.
White teas are quintessentially soft & gentle, featuring...
-Very low caffeine, second only to hojicha & 20+ year aged Pu'erh
-The highest relative antioxidants of all teas
-Fresh, sweetly herbaceous profiles
-Virtually no bitterness
With this Fujian spring harvest Silver Needle, we find understated flavors of apricot, sugarcane, fresh hay and a hint of pear. When hot, Silver Needle yields a muted gold liquor and a mellow meadow aroma of dried hay & stonefruit.
A little bit goes a long way! One three-finger pinch yields ~3g of tea.
6g Tea | 12oz Water | 180-190°F | 2-3 Minutes
