Silver Sprout

Adagio Teas – Silver Sprout

Adagio Teas Silver Sprout is a light green tea with hints of smokiness and delicate flavor. Silvery leaves live up to its namesake.

Silver Sprout tea features fine, twisted young leaves that resemble a chun mee style that is interspersed with silvery down-covered buds. The aroma is quietly floral but gives way to a smokiness, reminiscent of gunpowder but not nearly as bold. The cup is light, yet smoky with a semi buttery mouthfeel. In the finish a dry white grape note, and lingering smoke.

Silver Sprout is a delicate green tea which has a light and complex flavor but without the finicky brewing requirements of a true white tea. It pairs well with honey and rose petals or whichever additional herbs you choose to use.

Brewing Suggestions:

No longer is great flavor a mystery! In order to get the most out of your gourmet tea, bring clean water to 180 degrees Fahrenheit (83 degrees Celsius) and steep one teaspoon of the leaves for two to three minutes. Enjoy a relaxing cup today.

Fresh From Origin
Silver is one of the seven metals of antiquity, alongside gold, copper, tin, lead, iron, and mercury. Used for sculpture, coins, and jewelry since ancient times, it is now used for anything from solar panels to electronics and even water filtration. Though silver is sometimes associated with second best, à la silver medals, in folklore it reigns supreme as the ideal solution for werewolves, vampires, witches, and more. It is from this idea that we get the term “silver bullet,” which refers to the perfect solution for any given problem, for example, quieting your inner tea monster with Silver Sprout.
