Silver Needle

avg rating: 4.4    |    reviews: 400
This is a great, light cup of tea I usually enjoy in the evening. I've tried some of the other white teas and this one is by far the best one.

Excellent light white tea. It has a subtle nutty flavor with a very pleasant, sweet and almost earthy aftertaste. Highly recommended.

I love this tea, but I tend to get distracted and buy the jasmine silver needle.

It has a very delicate flavor and a great aroma. It had a little bitter aftertaste to me which could very well be my own taste buds or I could have over brewed it. It is a nice tea just not to my taste.

Has a nice, subtle taste. I like to let this steep for only 2-3 minutes, and the leaves can be used 2-3 times and each time tastes slightly different. Expensive, but completely worth it.

Very mild, silver needle is a good white tea that had the aroma of malted barley.

This tea has a clean and crisp flavor. Works well with any food.

Love this tea. A very light taste, and one of my favorites. I like to mix it with other teas, as it's so light and not over powering.

I did not like this tea at all, I tried messing with the temperature and time but could not get this tea to taste good. It had really pretty leaves though.

I love white tea, and this is teh best I have had. Snowbud is my regular tea (mostlt because of its good price) but I do get snow needle once ina while to treat myself.

This tea is fantastic, as well as healthy. It may be a disappointment to those who have never tried white tea before being that this tea doesn't have such a strong flavor. Although it's very difficult to describe the taste, I will attempt to do so anyway. It's very smooth and has a type of nutty taste to it. You might say that it has an earthy taste, but not to the extent that some green teas would have. It's a little more expensive than you might be used to, but the taste is well worth it. In addition, it goes a long way. I usually make one pot and can steep that batch another 2 times before it begins losing taste. Keep in mind that the longer it steeps the better it will taste!

Very light, very subtle. What came to mind when I thought of white tea. If you are new to tea and looking for something with a lot of flavor, you'll be disappointed. However, when your palate develops and you realize what you are looking for in white tea, you'll come begging back on your hands and knees.

Wow, my first white tea and not what I was expecting. I thought the tea was more woody than I was expecting with a sweet aftertaste that lasted forever.

This is a lovely white tea. It was very smooth - not bitter in the least. I really enjoyed it hot.

So delicate and light. This is really the perfect afternoon tea for me. I mixed with lavender and mint leaves.

Light, delicious and great after stressful day. I love it fresh, just brewed then it does not have bitter taste.

OMG! The only reason I checked "Great" is because there is no "Freaking Awesome" to select. I have never had a 'white' tea before, I'm now considering ordering a pound! If you don't try this you'll be missing out!

Too weak for my taste, but I'm not a connoiseur, so my palate probably can't appreciate it's delicate flavor.

A great white tea. My personal favorite. I usually only drink this occasionally in the afternoon (or when I get sick). Not thte cheapest tea in the world, but it has a nice smooth taste. I will be making some ice tea out of silver needle this summer.

It's pricey but a great white tea. A distinctive smooth flavor.
