Jasmine Silver Needles Ying Zhen

When it comes to White Tea, none are better than a Ying Zhen. But this particular beverage goes one step further as it is also scented with beautiful jasmine flowers. And that is what makes our Jasmine Silver Needles Ying Zhen Tea, so special; it is a grassy, floral, herbaceous fusion of flavours to the very last sip.

Low in caffeine and high in antioxidants, Jasmine Silver Needles Ying Zhen can also, when consumed as part of a healthy and active lifestyle, improve cardiovascular health, reduce skin blemishes, and even boost the metabolism, which can help the body to burn fat quicker and more efficiently. Yet, the potential health-promoting properties of this Jasmine Tea is just one string to this remarkable brew’s bow.

You may first consider it because it can lower your cholesterol, or prevent your acne, or help you to lose weight, but you will almost certainly keep coming back to it because, put simply, it tastes fantastic. After all, everything else comes second to satisfying the palate. And that is exactly what this White loose leaf  tea does.

It is important to note, also, that White Tea is not “graded” like other Teas; however, all Ying Zhen White Teas are high-grade equivalents. Middle-grade equivalents, meanwhile, are Bai Mu Dan Teas (White Peony Teas), while low-grade equivalents are Shou Mei White Teas. We as a company cater only to quality, meaning that only middle-grade and high-grade equivalent White Teas can be bought with The Kent and Sussex Tea and Coffee Company.

In choosing Jasmine Silver Needles Ying Zhen Tea, you are choosing the best of the best. It could be argued, even, that Jasmine Silver Needles Ying Zhen is better than its unflavoured counterpart. The reason for this is because of the jasmine blossoms, and the journey they make from the fields to your morning cup.

There is a beauty about Jasmine-scented Tea, one that begins on the very day that the flower buds are first picked. From the fields, the buds travel to the nearby Tea Factory where they are stored until evening. And when evening finally arrives, thousands of jasmine blossoms open into the cool night air, releasing their signature scent.

It is then that the jasmine flowers are placed into basket trays and layered over the White Tea leaves, the latter absorbing the intoxicating fragrance as well as the distinct flavour of the blossoms. It is a combination of two of the most beguiling flavours on earth, one best experienced with our Jasmine Silver Needles Ying Zhen Tea.
