Oh, this is such a pretty tea!
From the look, I’m guessing this is a blend of beautiful Silver Needles and fuzzy Bai Mu Dan?
(I stand corrected by the Master himself : «This is not a blended tea at all, It’s a single-origin white dried under the moonlight») Good to know, it makes it even more special :-)
White juice at its best.
White teas often get a bad wrap for not being tasty enough.
Having them Gongfu style will make you change your mind. The tastes just explodes this way, as opposed to a mug brew.
This is so juicy.
Notes of melon and cucumber, some peach, sweet peas, and honey.
Right from the start, you get a buttery thickness and a fresh mouthfeel that intensifies afterwards. At fourth steep, I can’t believe how sweet this is.
The wet leaves smell like hay warmed by the son. I know exactly how that smells like, my Grandpa was a farmer.
It might be delicate, but it’s so tasty. Also, it makes a wonderful cold brew.
I love this tea, and I’m hoping it will still be available by the time I place a new order.
It’s a sunny and happy tea :-)

Yay!!! you found another happy tea tonight. “hoping it will still be available…” LOL you will probably order again really soon ;))
Lol, I was just thinking the same Dexter. Do you have straight whites sometimes?
This is not a blended tea at all :) It’s a single-origin white dried under the moonlight :)
Bad me, should have done my homeworks :-) it really looks like needles and white peony mixed together. It’s just beautiful..
Straight white – not really. I only have one straight white tea in my house and I normally cold steep it with a little (just a little) fruit tisane. I did like the silver needle gong fu style that we did during my tea class (if that counts at all) – but I don’t really do that at home…
I love it…One of my favorite non-traditional whites for sure! :D
I love whites gongfu, but my silver needles also tend to hold up to ‘grandpa style brewing’ and one of mine is now my favourite tea to cold brew!
I’m going to have to gong-fuy this. I keep missing the point of whites so apparently I’ve been doing it RONG – I shll make a weekend date with the gaiwan and this and several others
Yyz, I love silver needles, and they are also fabulous cold brewed!
MzPriss, there’s no RONG lol, everyone has its own ways, but if your experience hasn’t been the greatness with them, then it,s worth trying :-)
You make this tea sound absolutely amazing. I’m going to have to pick up some of this.
This sounds wonderful. I may have to add some to the WP order that I already have planned for August! :)
The Teacret Agents strike again!
