Beautiful sunny day after the rain…nature’s awakening everywhere I look. The trees are getting dressed with their shinning armour of tender green leaves.
I chose this tea to accompany me this morning.
Not all Bi Luo Chun are created equally. This one is crafted with labor and love. Just stunning to look at, precious little bundles of golden Yunnan captured in every single nugget.
The taste does not disappoint either.
Honeysuckle and barley sugar are the main stars.
The infusion smells like candy. It renders a syrupy feel in the mouth.
Chocolaty and slightly malty. I taste just a breeze of spicy and floral notes as a finish .
A little work of art this tea. Another one I can see myself sipping in no time.
Just delicious, Bravo Whispering Pines!

So poetic!
Yay! I am so glad I ordered this one as well. Now I am having WP’s Ailaoshan black and I’m trying to make up my mind about it… I don’t think I am ready to write tasting notes about it just yet!
Thanks mj1851, but no credits, my surroundings are inspiring…
Kat_Maria, we seem to have placed a similar order!
I think I’m gonna go make a cup of this. I haven’t gotten around to starting sheng day yet, so that will be tomorrow and I will keep drinking my beloved blacks today.
This stuff was the first tea I actually wanted to make a pillow out of ;)
Sounds like a plan MzPriss!
Lol, a pillow would be expensive but heavenly!
I ended up having the WPTC Oriental Beauty instead. And I’m not sorry :)
I’m placing another order now and damn it, OB is sold out! I love OB oolong and don’t know why I didn’t order first time around :-(
Glad you’re having a good time with it though!
I’m beginning a love affair with leaf hoppers apparently.
It’s not so late that I might not still have a cup of the Bi Luo Chun. We’ll see.
