Silver needles from a wild garden in Zheng He county, Fujian. Sweet pockets like melon, or even kiwi, interspersed into a nuttier backdrop. A soft cloud-like energy rises—the sweetness mixing with astringency creates sharp moments of sunlight in the clouds. 

Perhaps the most famous style of white tea, consisting of only buds, Silver Needles is often prepared in a tall glass, or glass pot, to enjoy the beauty of the floating needles. When they begin to turn from horizontal to vertical, it's time to pour.

Reclining Rabbit

Burst of Inspiration

The rabbit reclines with all the leisure and latent power of a Mediterranean god. When puffy clouds begin to gather, the pressure shifts. At any moment, this prolific giant might rage into a ferocious storm. As lightning strikes, a flash of creativity zaps the poets and mystics in the town below, drawing them out of their ennui. Inspiration arrives in an instant.

This generative demigod of creativity invites you into sympathetic resonance with a drop of rain, a gust of wind, or a bolt of lightning. When thunder bursts into a shower, creativity breaks through writers’ blockades. Rain pours down cleansing old thoughts, releasing flowing tears in emotional catharsis, and pooling up to amass a weight of conviction behind decisions. There is momentousness in a storm, and it dissipates as quickly as it arrives. When inspiration strikes, will you be ready to answer its call? The one who dances with this muse must refill their cup before the rain clouds disperse.
