This is a really good silver needle: sweet and with a strong flavor, that is to say, stronger than I would have expected from a typical silver needle. The leaves were soft and fluffy. There are flavors of hay and of grass, these are soft flavors that mingle with the sweetness. A very lovely white tea.

Thanks LiberTEAS!

This is very sweet, a bit creamy to swizzle in the mouth, and crisp but there is a hint of hay or wheat texture to it at the beginning of the sip and it rounds out at the end. It’s very nice. It’s a great inbetween “cleanser” tea (especially after all of that chamomile I have been drinking! oye!)

I like this! It’s a goodie! :)

Wow, you drink so much tea! I’m impressed! I think I’ve had a max of 4 different ones in a day (except the one day where my roommate and I sampled 14, but that was before I found Steepster).
