"Dynasty Grade 1, Organic Silver
Needle consists of only the young, silvery down-covered buds harvested
in early spring. Silver Needle, known as Bai Hao or Yin Zhen, is the
most sought after white tea and only harvested for a few days each year
in the northern districts of Fujian, China.
The white tea bushes of
Northern Fujian were domesticated from wild tea trees and exhibit
silvery down-covered leaves that have been prized for their medicinal
properties for more than 1000 years.
Benefits of drinking white tea
include the Immune system, Skeletal system, and the prevention of
Cancer. Chinese white teas are known for their cooling (Yin) properties
and are considered detoxifying and refreshing. White tea, in comparison
to other tea, has the highest concentration of the anti-oxidant group
known as “catechins”. White tea has less caffeine and a milder, less
grassy flavor than most green teas. White teas are China’s rare tea
treasures. "
