A classic Nepali white tea, the barely exposed young leaves reveal down-like white hairs. One leaf and a bud are plucked during the spring harvest. Because Nepal’s teas have a long period of dormancy, they have been shown to be higher in antioxidants than teas from other countries once hand-plucked, the tea is withered in a trough and dried in the moonlight. Sandakphu Silver has a fresh, fruity aroma. Its flavor balances subtle notes of stone fruit with a satisfying, nutty finish.
I used to think I couldn't have tea after about 10 a.m., but this tea is so mild that I can drink a mug up to early afternoon without disrupting sleep. Lovely that the leaves can be used twice. There's something about this particular tea that just infuses me with joy as I drink it.
I like to have this tea after coming back from WORK. The aroma of the tea is quite relaxing and refreshing. This tea is very soothing and helps me to soften myself after a stressful day.
