Our Jasmine Silver Needle tea marries the finest Silver Needle white tea with the fragrance of fresh jasmine flowers to create the perfect balance of delicate white tea taste and sweet jasmine aromatics. 

Silver Needle is China’s finest white tea. Its perfect, downy buds are picked and sun dried in April, in the mountains of China’s Fujian Province. In August, the tea is laid beneath a bed of fresh jasmine flowers for seven consecutive nights, marrying the sweet white tea with fresh, fragrant jasmine aroma.

Jasmine Silver Needle is a delicious to tea to relax and unwind with.

The Jasmine petals open at night, so it is then that they are picked and laid atop the dry tea leaves.
