Exploring the Different Types of White Tea

White tea is a unique and delicate tea variety that offers a light and refreshing flavor. If you're a tea enthusiast looking to explore the world of white tea, Mahabodhi Tea House has a wide range of options for you to enjoy. One of the most popular white teas is Silver Needle, also known as Bai Hao Yin Zhen. This tea is made from the young buds of the tea plant and is characterized by its silvery-white appearance. Silver Needle has a delicate and sweet flavor with notes of melon and honey. It's the perfect choice for those who enjoy a subtle and nuanced tea experience. Another type of white tea available at Mahabodhi Tea House is White Peony, or Bai Mu Dan. This tea is made from both the buds and the leaves of the tea plant, giving it a slightly stronger flavor compared to Silver Needle. White Peony has a floral and fruity taste with hints of apricot and peach. It's a great option for those who prefer a slightly bolder flavor profile. If you're looking for a white tea with a unique twist, Jasmine Silver Needle is a great choice. This tea is made by infusing Silver Needle tea leaves with jasmine flowers, resulting in a fragrant and aromatic brew. Jasmine Silver Needle has a floral and sweet taste with a subtle jasmine aroma. It's a delightful option for those who enjoy a more floral and perfumed tea experience. At Mahabodhi Tea House, we take pride in sourcing only the highest quality white teas.

When brewing white tea, it's important to use water that is not too hot. White tea leaves are delicate and can be easily damaged by boiling water. Instead, use water that is around 175°F (80°C) to preserve the delicate flavors of the tea. Steep the tea for about 2-3 minutes to allow the flavors to fully develop. To enhance your white tea experience, consider pairing it with light and delicate foods. White tea pairs well with fruits, salads, and light pastries. The subtle flavors of the tea will complement and enhance the flavors of the food, creating a harmonious and enjoyable dining experience. So, whether you're looking for a light and refreshing tea or a unique and fragrant brew, white tea has something to offer.
