My Favourite

I love this tea, I've become obsessed. I can drink it any time of the day and it never disappoints. It's a subtle, smooth flavor but you can get stronger flavour if you prefer by brewing longer.

Always great to hear when someone is obsessed with a tea and what better than the beautiful delicate Silver Needle, enjoy!
