White tea technology is one of the oldest tea processing techniques on earth when tea was considered a medicine. White tea is prepared according to a special technology of natural withering and drying, while maintaining its rich internal content with substances such as active enzymes, polyphenols, etc. Due to the special cultivars, climate, quality of the tea leaves, and low level of oxidation, this type of tea provides maximum vitamins and microelements. The highest quality white teas are made from spring young buds and leaves, traditionally dried under the sun.
Chinese traditional medicine claims that white tea has a cooling nature, dissipating heat and reducing fire.

SILVER NEEDLES WITH WHITE PILE from NANGUANG TEA GARDEN
ORIGIN
Fuding is a small town in the northeast of Fujian province, China. This place is considered as a birthplace of white tea. The Nanguang Tea Garden is located west of Taimu Mountain, about 40 km south of the city of Fuding. An elevation is 600 to 900 meters. High altitude, unique climate and chemistry of soil makes the perfect conditions for growing highest quality tea.
The real Bai Hao Yin Zhen refers to the highest grade of white tea made from a special local cultivar Fuding Da Bai (Big White). The leaves are harvested between March 15 and April 10, on days when the weather is clear. Pure buds are picked (gently pinched off) only when they are fully swollen and ready to open. A beautiful, very clearly defined shape of a swollen bud, completely covered with a silvery pile, for which the tea is called 'Silver Needle with White Pile'. The buds of Fuding Da Bai are covered with white pile with a density almost three times higher than other varieties or cultivars of tea. This is what makes Fuding white tea unique, creating a special aromatic melody. Studies have shown that the content of amino acids, as well as aspartic and glutamic acids in tea bud hairs is significantly higher than in the leaf itself. In China, this form is considered as one of the tea jewels. Tea lovers describe Bai Hao Yin Zheng as "white as a cloud, green as a dream, pure as snow, fragrant as an orchid."
ORGANOLEPTICS
Dry tea leaves have a gentle and sweet floral aroma with fresh grass nuances. After keeping it in a warmed tea pot aroma develop into baked seeds and nuts. The infusion is transparent and slightly golden, has a honey-floral aroma and a refined refreshing aftertaste.
