White tea: a noble beverage dating back thousands of years

What are the virtues of white tea?
White tea is a healthy beverage that offers numerous health benefits.
Unheated and oxidised, it is less processed than its green or black cousins. However, you should choose your white tea carefully, depending on the time of day you drink it. Even though it has a clear, delicate liquor, Yin Zhen is made up entirely of buds and is therefore very invigorating.
As a result, it retains all its beneficial properties and is considered an excellent antioxidant. Protect your immune system with this virtuous beverage!
It also eliminates many of the toxins present in the body and acts as an appetite suppressant. Calorie-free, white tea also improves the cardiovascular system.
