STORYPrecious. Prestigious. Alluring in its rarity. Reserved for the imperial family of China. Inspired by its delicately floral, supple, and velvety nuances. Each exquisite bud infused for 10 hours. Enriched with opulent rose. The tenderness of sage. Enveloped in white musk.
INSPIRATION We were seduced by the delicate floral facet of the silver needle tea. It made us think of morning dew on white rose petals. With this in mind, we tried to capture the atmosphere of dawn.
INFUSION The tea is infused for 10 hours to keep its freshness. We tried infusing it for longer but the floralcy disappeared, to be replaced by a mossy scent.
CHARACTER Silver Needle Tea has a delicate floral character. We magnified this with a subtle, candid, romantic interpretation. Rose absolute brings richness and density. Mimosa absolute gives a green freshness layered with tender musk. A hint of bergamot in the top notes intensifies the floral freshness. And sage tones conjure an image of the dry tea leaves.
