China High Mountain BaiHao Jasmine Dragon Pearls

China High Mountain BaiHao Jasmine Dragon Pearls. White Hair Silver Needle is a white tea produced in Fujian Province in China. Silver Needle or BaiHao Yin Zhen or usually just Yin Zhen is the Chinese type of white tea. Amongst white teas, this is the most expensive variety and the most prized, as only top buds (leaf shoots) of the camellia sinensis plant are used to produce the tea. The leaves are layered several times with jasmine blossoms to absorb the aroma before being removed and the leaves rolled into tight pearls.

 

Spring hand-picked leaves.
Brewing: Use 2 to 3 pearls to start with to test your required flavour strength. Brew for 1 to 3 minutes using fresh water at 80C, as long as the tea leaves stay moist and warm they can be infused 3 to 5 times.
This tea is definitely one to experiment with: 1 to 5 pearls, 1 to 5 minutes, please find your own preferred recipe and share with us on the feedback page.
