Silver Needle

Description

Origin

Grown in the highlands of West Java, this Silver Needle comes from tea gardens shaped by volcanic soil, cool mountain air, and frequent mist. These natural conditions slow leaf growth, allowing flavour and character to develop gently within the youngest shoots.

Harvested only during a short seasonal window, each unopened bud is hand-plucked at peak tenderness. This careful selection reflects a philosophy of restraint—taking only what is best, and nothing more.

Tea Description

Composed exclusively of unopened buds, Silver Needle unfurls slowly during infusion, producing a pale, luminous liquor with a soft, creamy texture.

The flavour is clean and delicate, marked by subtle floral notes, natural sweetness, and an exceptionally smooth finish. Free from bitterness, this tea offers a quiet elegance that reveals itself gradually, sip by sip.
