While the 2021 version of this white tea is admittedly made from different material than the original Simao/Puer iteration, the profile is still quite close. This Yangta (Jinggu) white tea is unlike most Yunnan white teas you’ve probably tried, whether it be Moonlight White or something like our White Crow Shoumei.
The flavour is light and refreshing, with a slight grassy, vegetal quality that turns into a sweet finish. There is also an added depth and texture with this version compared to the 2019 release.
As this tea is quite unique, we recommend playing with your brewing parameters (time, water temperature, grams, etc) to dial in what works best for you.

Yesterday I broke into a fresh cake of the new pressing of BLT’s Skinny Dip. The 2019 pressing of this tea is one of my favourite white teas that BLT has ever carried so I was so excited to steep this one up!! It’s refreshingly crisp and vegetal with the sort of creamy cucumber pulp note that I just adore in white tea!! Light, refreshing, and approachable & honestly just insanely good value for how inexpensive the cake was!
