![]() White TeaWhile white tea gets its first historical mentions towards the end of the Tang dynasty, it is only in the 1780s where the primary bush gets its first proper mention and still another 90 years before the production method is well documented and the white tea is born. Yishan Teashop's white teas all come from Fuding, Fujian province, the chief source of the Da Bai Hao tea tree required to make White tea. Currently the discussion of health benefits for white tea describe certain advantages over other other tea types, while the caffeine content is claimed to be somewhere between minimal and nonexistent. Despite such confusion, we are certain that the wonderfully simple processing on our high quality pickings will yield an extremely healthy drink that is perfect for incorporating into your daily lifestyle.
Bai Hao Silver Needle is named after the Da Bai Hao tea leaf from Fuding that this tea features so prominently. Bai Hao simply refers to the large furry leaves that are completely covered to the point to which they resemble soft down feathers. The aroma is treasured among all white teas, and although it has many similarities in flavor to cheaper whites like Bai Mu Dan, there is simply no mistaking the enduring quality that each of the many multiple infusions bring to the cup.
