White tea (Silver Tip) is picked before the leaf buds fully open and are still covered  with fine silky hairs.  The delicate buds are quickly air dried to produce  some of the rarest and most expensive tea available.  White tea is said to  have three times more antioxidants than green or black tea.  Researchers  for some of the large cosmetic companies have become very interested in white  tea in recent years.  The polyphenols in white tea have been shown to be  very effective in mopping up free radicals that can lead to aging, and  wrinkles, and sagging skin.

The tea was first grown at Nuwara Eliya near Adam's Peak between 2200–2500 metres. The tea is grown, harvested and rolled by hand with the leaves dried and withered in the sun. It has a delicate, very light liquoring with notes of pine & honey and a golden coppery infusion. 'Virgin White Tea' is also grown at the Handunugoda Tea Estate near Galle in the south of Sri Lanka.
