Description Brand History   Silver Tips, commonly known as White Tea, is a very rare Ceylon tea, extremely limited in production - just a few hundred kilos per year. Understandably, it is one of the most expensive teas. Silver Tips is entirely handmade.  At the Kahawatte tea gardens, Dilmah maintain a small team of experienced pickers to handpick just the buds from select bushes of a particular variety. The tiny crop is then placed in raw silk pouches and spread over black flannel surfaced trays for drying.  The tea is throughout shielded from direct sunlight.  The whole process is managed meticulously, protecting the buds from any damage and over exposure.  Each kilogram of Silver Tips is the equivalent of four kilograms of fresh buds. Silver Tips are velvety to the touch and produces a pale liquor tinged with yellow - very delicate and subtle in flavor.  A rare, sophisticated indulgence! Special triangular mesh bag allows large leaf teas to be used and to brew better as there is more space inside the bag. The tea can be seen clearly through the bag, enhancing its appearance. Single Origin 100% Pure Ceylon Dilmah is entirely grown, handpicked and packaged in Ceylon (Sri Lanka), producer of the world's finest tea. Single origin explains why Dilmah s fresher, richer and full of flavor. Discerning tea drinkers will recognize the distinct difference in the very first sip. Packaged at the Source, Garden Fresh and All Natural Packaged in Sri Lanka within days of picking fresh leaf in the tea fields, maximizes freshness, the key to antioxidants in tea. Traditionally Manufactured Ordinary teas have abandoned the centuries old "orthodox" method or manufacturing for the fast track CTC (cut twist curl) method to meet demand for a quicker brew from tea bags.  This sacrifices the character and real taste of tea.   Dilmah stands firmly by traditional tea making methods, which explains why Dilmah tea tastes different.
