Wu Mountain Tea's Silver Needle White Tea is a treat for the serious tea drinker that should not be missed. From China's southern Fujian province, Silver Needle White Tea is a highly sought after white tea harvested for only a few days each Spring, boasting young tender buds freshly plucked just before opening. Silver Needle White Tea possesses a savory aroma with a rich body. The flavor profile is honeysuckle floral with subtle sweetness resembling white grapes. Silver Needle feels refreshing, soft and airy on the palate. Silver Needle White Tea was once a luxury available only to the emperor of China but in the recent decades has finally become available to Western tea lovers. Silver Needle White Tea is famous for its health benefits. White tea is the least oxidized of any tea and therefore it has the most antioxidants, which provide the body with numerous health benefits. Antioxidants have proven anti-inflammatory properties, which help to reduce pain, swelling, acne, and muscle stiffness. Antioxidants have also been proven to lower the levels of bad cholesterol, such as LDL, and regulate those that are beneficial for our health. The antioxidants also strengthen the immune system and ward off cancer. A major contributor to the development of cancer and many terminal illnesses is excessive oxidative damage caused by free radicals. The high levels of polyphenols and catechins, the two most common antioxidants in white tea, help to reverse the damage caused by free radicals, protecting the cells and DNA, detoxifying the organs and getting rid of inflammation. Additionally, Silver Needle white tea contains an amino acid called L-theanine, which is able to enhance our sense of calmness and stress-relief without nullifying any of the energizing benefits provided by the caffeine in White Tea. The L-theanine binds to caffeine and extends its period of absorption, which produces a relaxing concentration that is sustained throughout the day.
