For more than one thousand years, the pure, enchanting taste of white tea has remained greatly valued in the world of tea. Both highly prized and often expensive, white tea was historically available only to the very wealthy, but today, this delicious brew can be enjoyed by people around the world. Uniquely crafted and filled with nutrients and antioxidants, white tea is one delicious brew no tea collection should be without.
A Carefully Crafted Tea
White tea is harvested from the Camellia sinensis plant, but unlike its green and black tea cousins, white tea is taken from carefully chosen plants that have been matured for several years before their first harvest. The silver buds and young leaves are harvested in early spring, and are then slow-dried to prepare them. White tea leaves are the least processed of all teas; they are naturally dried, lightly rolled if at all, and are less oxidized than a black tea or oolong tea. The result of this careful selecting is an ivory-colored tea with a pleasing aroma and delicate, lightly sweet flavor that stimulates the senses.
Nourishing Qualities of White Tea
White tea is hardly limited to being simply a delicious tea. It also offers a variety of important nutrients, which are especially potent due to the tea’s light processing method. Just a few of the nutrients found in white tea include:
- Vitamin A,C,E & K
- A Variety of B Vitamins
- Potassium, Magnesium & Copper
- Antioxidants
- Dietary Fiber
- And more!

Why choose Buddha Teas?
Buddha Teas searches the world for the very best herbs, flowers, spices, and teas to incorporate into our blended and single herb wellness products. We NEVER use additives or “natural” flavorings. Instead, we use substantial quantities of key ingredients to ensure our products have optimal efficacy. During our exploration for the best, we found that living in harmony with nature is ideal. We've realized that any time we need nature to provide for us, we must give something back. Sustainably harvesting and keeping waste and pollution at a bare minimum made sense to us. Buddha Teas is 100% chemical free, from our bleach free tea bags to our utilization of soy-based ink for our labels and beautifully colored tea boxes. When you buy Buddha Teas, you’re not only enjoying a flavorful, hand-crafted, all-natural tea but you will also feel peace of mind knowing that you are buying your tea from a company that gives back to our magnificent planet.
Bleach-Free Tea Bags
Our tea bags may not be the whitest, but they ARE the safest because Buddha Teas ONLY uses bleach-free teas bags. For us, this is not a preference but a necessity. Tea bags that have been bleached contain harmful chemicals such as dioxin and epichlorohydrin. Dioxin is a highly toxic, chemical compound produced by some chemical processes such as bleaching paper. It falls into the category of a POP (persistent organic pollutant) which, as the name suggests, persists and refuses to breakdown in our bodies and the environment, potentially taking decades to detox. Epichlorohydrin (bleach) is also toxic and listed as a hazardous air pollutant (HAP). It has been classified by the EPA as a human carcinogen.
We believe that our customers should never have to choose between their health and their senses so we proudly offer bleach-free tea bags so that they can taste the purity of natural teas without the cost of harmful chemicals or additives.
