White Tea

White - Any variety of Camellia sinensis where the immature, un-opened buds are plucked just prior to opening and are not processed. The name comes from the silvery-white hairs on the buds, which give a slight white color. Compared to other teas, it has the lightest liquor ranging from almost clear to pale amber. The G. S. Haly Co.’s pick of white teas includes those rarities from Fuijian province and organic varieties.

China Origin:
White Pekoe Needles – Item: 5151 – Standard Min: 11Lbs [Kosher]
Origin: Fujian, China. White tea is a class unto itself. It is neither steamed nor oxidized and comes mainly from the Fujian province. Our white tea is from a small two acre garden in a hilly/mountainous region of the North Fujian province. The garden is approximately 3,500 feet above sea level. A delicate light green and white leaf, this tea is picked and produced in late March. Most white teas are very attractive but have no flavor. Not this one. This flashy leaf tea produces a mild sweet cup.
