100% worth it. This is a bud-only White Tea made in the Zheng He region near Wuyishan in remote Fujian. I first procured a batch on my travels last Summer and customers wanted more.
This tea is only picked once per year in the early spring. The bud starts protruding and is quickly picked and processed by air drying followed up by a quick low-temp bake. This tea is very minimally processed. It's sweet, super clean and very nice. If you really like it let me know and we should be able to carry it moving forward. Due to the meticulous bud-only picking it's a bit more expensive for us to get but if you think we should carry it let us know!
Location: Zheng he
Trade names: Yinzhen, baihao Yinzhen, Silver needle
Harvest: Spring 2026
Brewing:
This can get bitter if brewed too long so don't be greedy. Keep it nice and light and you'll be rewarded :) If brewing in a gaiwan, put 2-3g leaf, filtered or spring water around 175°F / 80°C. Steep for about 1-2 minutes. Easily good for a few good brews just add a bit more time with each subsequent brew.
Otherwise, you can brew it like Longjing in a tall clear glass so you can see the action.
