Assamica Sun-Dried Silver Needles White Pu-erh Tea

Assamica White Needle

Wonderful flavor and quality.

Sweet fruit juice

This is a very interesting tea, with hints of smoke in the first infusions that turn into a lovely fruity sweetness. The notes are a little difficult to describe, they make me think of a mix of pear and apple juice with a bit of florals. There is a hint of cinnamon, though for me it's very subtle. One of my favorites from my last order!

Flavor is great, presentation is underwhelming.

Flavor is good, very traditional and no complaints. The presentation of the teal laves something to be desired. The buds are significantly smaller than I remember any other silver needle being and there are quite a few stems, both of which detract from he overall experience. I am a fan of nibbling on the tea leaves, but I do not find that I enjoy that with this batch.
