ORIGIN

Taimu Mountain

FUJIAN, CHINA

Rising to an average elevation of 600 meters, Taimu Mountain enjoys over 1,600 mm of annual rainfall, creating cool, misty conditions ideal for white tea. Tea trees grow upon ancient Yanshan granite with deep, loose yellow gravel soils rich in minerals and well-drained for healthy root development. Carefully crafted over a 180-day production cycle, including more than 60 hours of natural withering, Silver Needle develops its signature purity, delicate floral fragrance, lingering sweetness, and elegant mineral character.
