Default picture of silver needle

Hi, I took a picture of my silver needle shortly after steeping it.
Check it out if you want. Please be kind, I'm not a photographer. It
was steeped in an Ingenuitea apparatus.

Thanks for asking! It tasted refreshing. It had a sweet, subtle,
full flavor which I can't describe beyond that. It's one of my all
time favorites.

I always feel like I'm getting my money's worth from all the infusions
I get from one tablespoon of the stuff.

Can't agree more. Some tea may seem expensive, but being able to
infuse more times with just a small amount really make it
worthwhile ...



The leaves actually look more green than the silvery gray I drink.
