Dilmah t-Series Ceylon Silver Tips is a rare, handmade white tea from a distinct variety of Camellia sinensis, grown on Kataboola Estate. Only the fresh buds are hand picked at dawn, protected in silken pouches and then dried under filtered sunlight.
The silver, needle-like buds have a velvety texture and give a pale, very delicate liquor with hints of pear, honey and a light herbal note. Part of the Very Special Rare Tea (VSRT) selection.
