Origins of White Tea
White tea is a type of tea originating from the Fujian province of China, where it has been grown and harvested for centuries. It is the least processed tea and is made from young leaves of the camellia sinensis plant, which are picked before the buds open and then dried in the sun. The name "white tea" comes from the silvery-white hairs on the unopened buds of the tea plant, which give the tea its unique appearance.
White tea was traditionally used in Chinese medicine and was believed to have medicinal properties. It is renowned for its delicate flavour and fragrance, which is due to the fact that it is minimally processed and contains fewer polyphenols than other teas.
It is typically made from a combination of two tea varieties: Silver Needle and White Peony. Silver Needle is made from only the buds of the tea plant and is considered to be the highest quality and most expensive type of white tea. White Peony is a blend of leaves and buds, and is of a slightly lower quality than Silver Needle.
Today, white tea is available in a variety of styles, from loose-leaf to bagged tea, and is popular in many parts of the world. It is also used in various health and beauty products, such as facial creams and lotions.
Health benefits of White Tea
White tea is thought to have greater health benefits than other teas because it is less processed and retains more of its antioxidants and polyphenols. Polyphenols are compounds that may help reduce inflammation, lower the risk of cancer, and improve heart health.
Its richness of antioxidants, can help protect cells from damage caused by free radicals. This can help reduce the risk of chronic diseases such as heart disease, cancer, and diabetes.
Caffeine content in loose-leaf tea, can help boost alertness and focus. White tea is thought to have cardiovascular benefits.
Studies have shown that it can help reduce cholesterol, lower blood pressure, and reduce the risk of stroke. It can also increase HDL (good) cholesterol and reduce LDL (bad) cholesterol.
White tea is thought to have anti-ageing benefits as well. It can help reduce the appearance of wrinkles and age spots, promote skin elasticity, and protect the skin from sun damage. It may also help reduce inflammation and boost the immune system. It is also known to promote weight loss.
Likewise, it has many health benefits, making it an excellent choice for anyone wanting to improve their overall health.
White Tea loose-leaf
Loose-leaf white tea is ideal for those who wish to experience all the subtleties of this delicate tea. The tea leaves are left intact, allowing for greater infusion and a unique, full-bodied flavour. With its downy, silver-tipped leaves, it looks just as beautiful as it tastes.
This tea is naturally low in caffeine and is packed with antioxidants, making it the perfect choice for those looking for a healthy, invigorating drink. When brewed correctly, it has a light, golden colour and a gentle, sweet flavour.
Loose-leaf white tea can be brewed using a variety of methods, but the best way to ensure a full, balanced flavour is to steep the leaves in hot (not boiling) water for three to five minutes. This will bring out the tea's subtle, complex flavours and give you a cup of tea that is both light and refreshing.
White tea is a truly exquisite beverage and a perfect way to relax and unwind. Whether you enjoy it on its own or with a touch of honey or lemon, it is sure to bring you a moment of pure pleasure.
White tea teabags
White tea is often referred to as the ‘champagne of teas’ due to its unique flavour and aroma. It has a light, delicate taste, and is slightly sweeter than green tea. Teabags allow you to enjoy this subtle flavour without having to worry about loose-leaf tea.
Simply pop a teabag into your cup or mug and add hot water, then leave it to steep for a few minutes before drinking. The tea can be enjoyed on its own or with a slice of lemon or a spoonful of honey to enhance the flavour.
Whether you’re looking for a refreshing morning pick-me-up, a gentle evening beverage or something to help you relax and unwind, it is the perfect choice. Enjoy the delicate flavour and health benefits of this special tea whenever and wherever you like.
