Darjeeling White Tea has a delicate aroma and brews to a pale golden cup with a mellow taste and a hint of sweetness. Darjeeling white tea leaves are very fluffy and light; thus, it is recommended to use more (by volume) when preparing it than one would of other teas.
[edit] Processing
The tea is hand picked and rolled by hand and then withered in the sun, making it a rare and popular tea. It is grown in the rainy and hot climate of Darjeeling in India at altitudes of 2000 metres.
