Holy heck, what a delectable tea! It’s a very complex sweet in that way white tea can be, I don’t even know if there’s a good way to describe it but it’s so darn tasty. I read on a blog (oolongowl I believe) that whites can benefit from higher temperatures, and that has been confirmed with this tea at least. I used 203F water throughout my steepings and the liquor has a lovely mouthfeel to go along with the taste. I also seem to get a nice energy from this tea even though I haven’t seen many people report about qi in white teas. Regardless, I have 50g of this and I would not be shocked if I buy more. This is a great lift after a long day and a rough week; it’s snowing inside but I have my lovely teas to keep me warm :)

Flavors: Sweet, Vegetal

Hi there! I’m Drew from northeastern USA. At 21 years old, I’m slowly aging into a decent raw hu’man. Since first getting into “true tea” in 2016, it has become a staple of my life. I suffer from anxiety and panic attacks, but when I drink tea the frequency of both drops dramatically. Tea is a wonderful way to meditate, enjoy the energies of the world, and to become present in the moment.

Generally, I think I’ll try to stick to these rating parameters:

91-100: Absolutely incredible. Best taste and energy from any tea I’ve had. (NB: I feel like I haven’t had enough teas to put any I have had into this category quite yet)

81-90: I need to buy this stuff in bulk, because I’m in love with it. The flavor/energy combination is close to perfect.

71-80: I really enjoyed it, but something was lacking.

61-70: Not bad, but not mind-blowing either. I may not drink this specific varietal again, but I likely want to try other kinds of this tea.

51-60: Meh… I’ve given this tea multiple chances, and it’s not for me. Not offensively bad, and I recognize that some people may like it, but it wasn’t for me.

0-50: Yikes. You should consider not buying this.
