White Tea (Camellia sinensis) comes from the same leaves as green tea, but are harvested at a younger age. This Silver Moon Tea is a modern take on the famous White Tea - containing both silver needle and white tea.

Two leaf variations from the one plant come together to create a new yet familiar crisp, clean and delicate taste.
