Silver Tip Bai Hao Oolong Tea
Silver Tip Bai Hao Oolong Tea—Taiwan's 'Oriental Beauty'—is a rare oolong shaped by nature's craft. Each summer, delicate insects feed on emerging buds, triggering an enzyme response that creates distinctive multi-hued leaves: burnished gold, jade green, rich brown, ebony and silvery white tips. The result is a floral, sophisticated infusion with notes of stone fruit, honeyed sweetness and chestnut warmth. A tea of remarkable complexity, grown nowhere else with quite this character.

Bai Hao—Silver Tip—carries the poetic name 'Oriental Beauty' for good reason. This extraordinary oolong hails from Miaoli County in Taiwan, where nature orchestrates something truly remarkable.
For a fleeting window each summer, a delicate grasshopper-like insect works its magic on the tea plant's emerging buds. As they feed, they trigger an enzyme response that transforms the leaves, deepening their character and creating those captivating multi-hued dry leaves—burnished gold, jade green, rich brown, ebony and silvery white tips that catch the light.
The result is a tea of remarkable complexity. Pour it and you'll discover a floral, deeply satisfying infusion with whispers of stone fruit, honeyed sweetness and chestnut warmth. The flavour unfolds on your palate, layered and sophisticated, a testament to those weeks of natural craft.
This is a tea for those who appreciate true individuality—grown nowhere else with quite this character, created by the hand of nature itself.
