Da Bai Yin Zhen
Tasting notes: Ripe pear, leather, old wooden furniture, hay and spring flowers. Thick, silky texture and clean, refreshing finish.
Also known as White Hair Silver Needle, it is often considered one of the finest white teas available. This Fuding version is slightly less oxidized than Zhenghe versions., which makes for a lighter brew more subtle in flavour.
Price range: $11.50 through $84.00
Made from Camellia sinensis var. assamica tea bushes gives the tea a more robust flavour, higher polyphenol content, and a distinct aroma. Only the first new buds are hand picked, then lightly wilted, pan-fried briefly at low temperature and allowed to dry naturally (sometimes with the help of fans). This relatively unadulterated style of processing lends the Silver Needle tea a fruity and sweet taste and aroma that even with a year or two of age will still taste thick, viscous and full in the mouth.
