Wonderful first try
I was looking to get into really good variations of tea, so I chose a sample of this to give white tea a try. I was surprised how subtle, yet sweet and flavorful it was, with an almost fruity taste to it. I could drink this all day!

Amazing!
I could drink this tea all day! It smells wonderful - sweet, fresh, and floral. Mmmm... Surprisingly, it brews up even more wonderful than it smells. There's no need to add anything to this tea. I've found that this is a great "palate cleansing" tea.

Complex flavors
As a white tea this silver needle is very complex. It's savory, woodsy, and yet a little sweet. I really enjoy sipping this throughout the day.

An exceptional tea
This is a very calming, mellow tea. I love to have it in the evening to relax and wind down after a long day. I think 3 minutes is a good steep time.

Divine!
If you like milder teas, you have to try this one! You can just taste the quality of the tea leaves. It's quite special.
