Savor the refreshing and healthy white teas of China and India. Our Wholesome White collection includes 1 ounce each of the following teas:

Silver Needle - This high-grade white  tea is made only from tender new buds that are covered in silver-white hairs. The leaves are picked only two days a year in the early spring and are processed entirely by hand. When infused, Silver Needle tea produces a clear, straw colored liquor with an extraordinary full-bodied, fresh and sweet taste.

Organic White Peony - A traditional style of white tea originating from China, our White Peony is picked in the early spring and carefully crafted from a mix of light and dark green leaves and lots of silvery buds. White Peony has a fresh bamboo aroma, a full-bodied mouth feel and a lightly sweet flavor with notes of melon and grape. 

Organic Darjeeling Silver Tips - This silver tips tea from the award-winning Makaibari Estate in Darjeeling is a rare treat for tea lovers. Hand-picked from special bushes, Silver Tips tea is made only from young buds and tender leaves. Careful processing by the tea maker results in an excellent tea with a delicate floral bouquet and notes of vanilla and honey.

Drum Mountain White Cloud - Grown in the clouds and mist environment, known as "yun wu" in China, this white tea is wonderfully fragrant and has a mild, sweet taste with a slightly nutty flavor. It is very easy to brew and doesn't become bitter from oversteeping. Very low in caffeine.

We may substitute a comparable tea in the case that one of the designated teas is not available.
