Most of us see names like Orange Pekoe or Silver Needle on tea packs… but rarely stop to understand what actually makes them different. In this brew, I’m exploring three distinct expressions of orthodox tea from @mistymountainpeermadetea —all from the same tea plant, yet worlds apart in taste, texture, and experience. 🍃 Orange Pekoe (OP) Made from whole, young tea leaves that are neatly rolled. The result is a clean, smooth cup with gentle floral notes and a refined finish. 🍃 Broken Orange Pekoe (BOP) The same leaves, intentionally broken to allow faster infusion. This creates a stronger, brisker brew with more body—perfect for milk tea or masala chai lovers. 🍃 Silver Needle The most delicate of them all. Crafted using only unopened tea buds, naturally covered in soft white hair. It brews into a light golden cup that’s sweet, calming, and beautifully subtle—without any bitterness. ✨ Whole leaves. Broken leaves. Untouched buds. Three styles, three flavour profiles, one beautiful tea journey. If you’ve ever wanted to understand what’s really in your teacup—this is where it begins.
