Silver Needle Tea.jpg

The best cup of tea I have ever had. There is a tea place in the Asia part of the Animal Kingdom that has some whole leaf teas from China and Asia. This one was Silver Needle green tea. Note how big the leaves are. They used a LOT of leaves for one cup as well. This cup was around 4 bucks but by looking at the tea it was a bargain.
