This was the only white from its YS order that disappointed. The flavor isn’t bad, but the astringency is immediate and intense, oddly so for a white tea. Maybe it would be better brewed some other way, but it’s not great gongfu style.
Edit: I considered throwing out the rest of my supply, but instead have been adding some to rooibos whenever brewing the rooib a second time, and it does a decent enough job of perking things up.

I’m a 27-year-old man who didn’t like tea until college, then downed a dozen teabags a day before switching to loose leaf. I’ve been drinking gongfu style every day since about 2015, and could hardly imagine life without it.
