Silver Tips Tea - also called Silver Needles Tea shipped within days of harvest from Ceylon Silver Tips, a highly sought after white tea made in the mountains of the central hills in Ceylon.
Harvested from a selected variety of tea bush boasts young tender buds freshly plucked right before opening. Also known as Silver Needles, our Silver Tips Tea has exquisitely shaped buds enveloped in white down. This white tea dazzles with its savory aroma, rich body and smooth delicate cup.
Our white teas have a smooth, sweet taste that is soft, yet pronounced because they are delivered to you within days of harvest from Ceylon. Low in caffeine and thought to contain three times more antioxidants than green tea or black tea, our white teas are made from buds that are simply hand picked and dried in the sun.
