Hand-picked in February 2015 using only the finest silvery-yellow buds (with a few characterful dark flecks), the leaves were gently pressed into a medium-firm cake shortly after harvest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eWhat followed was eight years of careful aging, transforming this tea from a delicate young white into something altogether richer and more complex. The result is a soft, gently humid character with a light touch – and a cup that pours a clear, elegant light cognac hue. Expect a beautifully layered tasting experience, with fruity nuances that continue to deepen and evolve year on year.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThis is a limited, small-batch lot – a genuine rarity for collectors and white tea enthusiasts alike, and a wonderful introduction to how beautifully white tea can age.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv itemprop=\"description\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eLeaf: \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eSilvery-yellow tea buds with some dark spots, pressed into a medium-firm cake\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv itemprop=\"description\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eCup: Clear structure, in nuances of light cognac\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv itemprop=\"description\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCharacter: \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eSoft, humid, light\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv itemprop=\"description\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBrewing Time: \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e1-2 min\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv itemprop=\"description\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGrowing Altitude: 1200m\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv itemprop=\"description\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePortion size: 12g\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv itemprop=\"description\"\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"sinas","offers":[{"title":"100 grams","offer_id":64165752439161,"sku":"15473","price":49.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0802\/5397\/files\/Silver_Needle_Cake_UK_Loose_Leaf_Tea_Company.png?v=1785927865","url":"https:\/\/theuklooseleafteacompany.co.uk\/products\/china-yunnan-white-silver-needle-beeng-cha","provider":"The UK Loose Leaf Tea Company Ltd","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
