Also known as “Moonlight White”, this review is for the Spring 2021 harvest.

This tea has great bag appeal with a malty smell and a combination of fuzzy white tips and flatter dark leaves. The soup is malty and sweet, though delicate and on the weaker side so you’ll want to use more than some other white teas. It has medium body, no bitterness and very mild astringency with a slight peony aroma. It is very easy to drink but does not pack a punch if that is what you are looking for. Overall, I enjoyed this tea as it is great to session throughout the day since it is easy to drink and has a lower caffeine content.

I brewed it in a 140ml clay teapot and poured 100ml cups. I drink the wash, so my first brew time is longer to begin with:

6g, boiling: 45, 35, 40, 45, 1m.

At the 1min brew and later, the tea begins to get weak.

Flavors: Malt, Sweet

Preparation
Boiling 0 min, 45 sec 6 g 3 OZ / 100 ML
