Tealyra - Imperial Yunnan Silver Needle - White Loose Leaf Tea - Caffeine Level Low - 100g (3.5-Ounce)

Started using this product quite recently. I love the delicate flavour and would definitely recommend. Quite pricey but I guess you pay for quality.

Great taste, not much dust / bits in the bottom of the packet. Highley recommended.

I drink a lot of silver needle tea and wanted to test alternatives as online prices are high, and the cost amounts when you are drinking this regularly. While this is cheaper, it lacks depth of flavour. I found the light mellow taste usual of silver needle to be absent here. The depth of flavour is lost entirely when you try for multiple infusions. I have found alternatives at amazon for similar price but wanted to test this due to the swift delivery (as the others can take up to 3 weeks): not worth it- better to wait longer delivery as the flavour is very lacking here.

I am a big tea lover and I think also quite picky. I mainly drink green teas - Japanese sencha is my number one choice. Though I tried many white teas as well. I do not drink black teas or coffee. During my pregnancy, I wanted something with less caffeine, so white tea was a natural option for my morning tea routine. During the Covid crisis, they closed my favorite tea shop and I decided to find something on Amazon. I have to say, I really love this tea and I think it is unbelievably good value for money. Dried leaves have an amazing smell. The tea has a very light taste- obviously nutty as white tea should be, but I also feel something grassy in there (just a hint), which I really like. I will definitely buy it again.

This smelt good when the packet was first opened and is a good, clean, sweet tasting white tea for the price.

Im a long way from being a tea connoisseur but over the course of a year I do try out quite a few and this is one of the nicer ones. I have a small glass teapot (sacrilege I know), as my wife can't stand tea so only small pot required, this allows me to see the tea as it brews. For first brew it does take about 5 mins for the rich brown/golden colour to show. The flavour (I don't use milk) is quite subtle but very pleasant, no bitterness, but not flowery either. The taste is slightly nutty and lingers on the tongue after swallowing. I find that you can get two brews out of one lot of "leaves", with the second just as nice as the first but quicker to brew. The tea comes supplied in a re-sealable packet so no other storage medium required.

Weird taste (negative). I love most types of tea - no matter what type - but this tasted awful. Sorry - it cost me £15-£16 and it was awful.

A fair tea for the price. Not as flavoursome as teas that cost 2-3 times as much, but this is affordable enough to drink often.
