White tea composed of buds and leaves, a rich floral flavour with a hint of sweetness, and a surprising touch of cinnamon. This Bai Mu Dan is smooth yet full-flavoured. A good cup for everyday drinking.
Drank this tea with ashmanra’s prompt : “Tea with three words in the name”
Another fun concept for the sipdown challenge! The possibilities are so vast! In the end I chose this random white tea that has been chilling in an ornate metal tin in my cupboard for a while. I truly do not know where I got this tea , all I know is that it is a Chinese bai mu dan. I suppose, what more do I need to know?
The scent of this tea on the dry leaf is a gentle melon – refreshing, delicate and creamy. Brewed this up in my gaiwan, only to be hit with the most uncanny watermelon flavor on the nose as well as the brew. Like, straight up fresh cut watermelon from a roadside stand, heavy and ready to be sliced into. So intensely juicy that it made me wonder if this is a flavored blend! On further inspection, the watermelon is too subtle and not like any watermelon flavoring i’ve ever had. It leans on the side of the last bite of watermelon before the rind. It’s got me wondering how good a cold brew application will treat this tea… hmmmm
Flavors: Hay, Melon, Watermelon
Sounds like a good Bai Mu Dan! Perfect time of year to discover it, too.
Exactly! It’s begging to be made into a summery cold brew.
