White Tea

White Teas are traditionally a specialty of The Chinese Province but in recent times DARJEELING has mastered the art of White Tea.

For all the tea families, it is the white teas that undergo the least elaborate manufacturing process, and yet it is also the white teas that are some of the most delicate of all.

There are two main types of White Tea: Silver Needles made solely from long silvery buds, and Bi-Mu-Dan, which is made from stems bearing a bud and two – or sometimes three or four leaves.

White Teas are made with leaves left in their natural state. They undergo just two processes: withering and drying.
