From Bellocq Tea Atelier

A cheeky and distinctive blend of organic white peony tea (pai mutan), dusky lavender with refreshing notes of bright grapefruit. Equally content to be enjoyed traditionally, White Nixon may also be enjoyed iced and makes an excellent base for poolside cocktails and summer hijinks with a twist.

Ingredients: Organic white tea, organic lavender, organic flower petals, and natural essence

I couldn’t resist the look of that White Wolf blend any longer and finally caved in a few weeks back. So here I am now, with so much white tea, and even more yellow tissue paper. I’ve never seen a tea parcel look more like a birthday present! This tea was generously included as a free sample.

Anyways, how does it taste? Lavender, lavender, lavender, melon, white grapefruit, garlic-onion.. whoops! That last one is coming from the aftertaste of my exquisite tuna-mayo-garlic-green onion lunch mix. Come on, I know you’re all jealous of my fabulous meal (a container of mouthwash couldn’t fix this).

That lavender is definitely the dominant note in this one, but I don’t feel it gets soapy. It blends into everything extremely well, actually (including the tuna onions). It creates soothing “spa-like notes”, and something almost nutty and juicy mid sip. I could see me wanting a nice cup of this during the rainy spring season.

Edit: I enjoyed the cooled down second steep even more than the first. The lavender takes on a sweet minty quality, and lemon/white grapefruit notes pop out. Yes, this is a good tea with fish.

You got White Wolf?! Even though it’s minty, may I try one serving?

Of course! Just a warning- from the aroma, I’m guessing it’s even mintier than I thought :)

OMGsrsly

That’s fine. I’ll save it for a minty day. :)

I liked that one best I think, of the Bellocq teas I ordered. I love their presentation!

The website and the packaging are beautiful! I almost didn’t want to open the tea because I’d have to remove the white ribbon.

Sipdown

No note from me and it’s a sipdown? How?

This was a lovely white tea. It is very floral but not as potent as White Wedding. I enjoy floral tea but Ashman doesn’t with the exception of jasmine green so it took me a while to sip this one down.

It is lavender forward and so relaxing to drink. Would re-order someday, as I liked both this and White Wedding which is exuberantly, proudly, ostentatiously bursting with flowers.
