Premium Yunnan Pure Bud Silver Tip Spring Green Tea

Premium Yunnan Pure Bud Silver Tip Spring Green Tea

At the break of spring in the high mountain gardens of Yunnan, before the leaves fully unfurl, the first tender buds are hand-plucked at dawn, each one soft, silvery, and rich with vitality. Our Premium Yunnan Pure Bud Silver Tip Spring Green Tea is made exclusively from these young, unopened leaf buds, capturing the purest expression of early-season energy in every infusion.

These delicate green tea buds are expertly pan-fixed and gently dried to preserve their downy sheen and retain their complex aroma. When brewed, the dry leaves awaken slowly, releasing a pale jade liquor with crystalline clarity and a gentle, almost ethereal aroma—fresh pea shoots, spring meadow, and sweetgrass, with a whisper of orchid and raw almond.

The taste is light and pure, yet remarkably satisfying. It opens with a soft vegetal sweetness, followed by subtle notes of chestnut, cucumber skin, and a fleeting floral tone that lingers softly at the edges. There is no bitterness, only clean, rounded flavour with a mineral finish and a soft, cooling sensation in the throat that lingers long after the last sip.

This is a green tea for those who appreciate quiet refinement, nothing sharp, nothing overwhelming, just balance, clarity, and the honest beauty of nature’s first growth.
