ADDITIONAL INFO:
Legend has it that a young maiden from a small village near the base of a mountain, the only child of a local farmer and his wife. fell ill one winter. Summoning a doctor was impossible as the family’s village was unreachable by road during the wintertime. In desperation, the family decided to venture up the mountain to the home of an old shaman that was rumored to live near its peak. The climb to the top took almost a full week. the farmer having to carry his ailing daughter to the summit. By the time they reached the top. the girl was dead. Distraught, the farmer spoke to the shaman anyway. While there vas nothing she could do to bring the girl back to life, she made the farmer a promise. If he buried his daughter at the top of the mountain, as an offering to the gods, he would be rewarded for his loyalty to his only child. The shaman said that with her body resting so close to the heavens. the girl’s spirit would rise into the clouds to become moonlight and from its rays, wherever they touched the earth in the spring, tea would blossom. The man did as he was told and ventured back down to his home. Weeks later, the snows of winter melted and the days and nights became melted. One morning, after a particularly warm night, the farmer and his wife awoke to find their yard filled with shoots of new tea. They harvested a bowl full of the leaves, brought some water to a boil and to their delight found it to be delicious. They christened the tea Silver Moonlight and from that day forward felt their daughter was always with them.

Paul Newson –
This silver moonlight white tea is the best tea that I have ever tried and I’ve tried many. For me, it has a mellow flavor and NO aftertaste. Its aroma is subtle and its color is pretty. I also steep it a 2nd time the next day, for a stronger flavor (I really do). The color is darker on the 2nd day, and for me it is still a good tasting tea (otherwise I would not continue to do it.)
Carl Kirwan –
Very smooth and clean tasting. I find myself preferring the Silver Needle White Tea over coffee when I first get up. Makes me feel like I’m doing something good for my body. Overall I’m very satisfied and will purchase again.

White tea is my favorite conveniently steeped in teabags, but after steeping Silver Moonlight White Tea loose leaves, it is more preferred giving a golden color, smooth and especially sweet aftertaste unlike the finely ground leaves in teabags.. One teaspoon in a teaball doubles in size and steeped again offers a second cup of tea.
Ms. V. Stout –
