A sheer decadence, white tea comes from the same plant as
green,
oolong,
and
black teas – Camellia sinensis. White tea, however, is least
processed of all the teas. Named for the silver fuzz on the bud when
the leaves are picked, white tea is often described as light, fresh,
and sweet. No matter what your tastes, this pale yellow cup is simply
divine, a rare treat for special occasions.
