Advent Day 11
Light, citrusy, bergamoty. I like it, but the more frequently I sip the more the citrus builds up and becomes a little bitter. This is one I should drink more slowly!
Flavored white tea seems to be kinda rare. There are a couple of AQ2T blends that were based on white that I really liked. I’m thinking of exploring that category some more. Any favorites?

I tend to avoid flavored white teas for the most part, as they’re often just not good. But Harney has some good ones – I like their Heirloom Bartlett Pear, Venetian Tiramisu, and Winter White Earl Grey. I also like Nearly Nirvana from B&B, but that has jasmine as well. Løv Organic had some yummy ones, but I don’t think they made the transition. Looks like Kusmi has a “Tropical White” now so that might be worth trying.
The tiramisu sounds great!
It has hojicha so that’s cheating a bit… ;)
I also love hojicha!
I really like August Uncommon Know By Heart which is a flavored white tea.
I tried that one and tasted dough. :/ I had a hard time with AU teas. I might still have the rest of the sample around somewhere. Maybe I should try it again.
The only other ones that come to mind are Harney & Sons White Vanilla Grapefruit which didn’t taste like grapefruit more like vanilla with citrus.I haven’t tried their Tiramisu white tea because the sample always sold out but that one has gotten great reviews on Steepster. Most Flavored white teas are usually disappointing in my experience.
