Loose leaf tea consisting of silver-green tips in a white dish, two blurry cups of pale yellow tea in backgroundView Full Resolution

This photo shows loose-leaf silver needle (Bai Hao Yinzhen) tea, with two cups of brewed tea in the background behind it. This type of white tea consists exclusively of buds or tips, which gives it a mild flavor but a high caffeine content.

The buds on silver needle tea are covered in downy white hairs. This particular batch looks a little less fuzzy than some, but you can see the hairs if you look closely.
