Yunnan Baihao Yinzhen Silver Needle – Wholesale Hybrid-Cultivar Silver Needle White Tea

Baihao Yinzhen, also known as Silver Needle, is one of the most treasured styles of Chinese white tea. It is traditionally linked with Fujian, but this version comes from a Yunnan-origin cultivar that was transplanted to Fujian and further hybridized, producing a distinctive take on the classic. For specialty tea retailers, it offers premium Silver Needle with a unique cultivar story.

The tea is hand-picked from premium early spring single buds and made using traditional methods without frying or rolling. The tender buds are naturally withered, gently spread and dried at low temperature to preserve their original character, delicate aroma and smooth taste. The dry buds are plump and straight, covered with fine silvery-white pekoe hairs that give a bright, glossy silver appearance. It is 100% natural tea buds with no additives or blending. The liquor is pale apricot-yellow and crystal clear; the aroma is classic pekoe with soft honey and faint florals; the flavor fresh, mellow and refreshing with gentle fruity sweetness; the mouthfeel silky; and the finish clean and naturally sweet.
