Togo drank 2023 Yunnan Sourcing "Mengku Gu Shu Bai Cha" White Tea Cake by Yunnan Sourcing

1004 tasting notes

This tea could be a nice base for kombucha, but maybe it’s too expensive for that.

The aroma is strong particularly after the rinse, but I cannot really describe it well. It reminds me of some food that I cannot name on top of the sweet dry grass smell that’s common for such teas.

The taste is warming, mineral, and sweet with a decent astringency. The profile does not stand out particularly, there are notes of cream, hay, pear, and pie.

Flavors: Astringent, Cake, Cream, Dry Grass, Floral, Hay, Mineral, Pear, Sweet

Preparation

200 °F / 93 °C 0 min, 15 sec 6 g 3 OZ / 100 ML

Hi, I am a researcher in math, physics and computer science. Apart from teas and mathematics, I enjoy sports and traveling, as well as music of all kinds. Connect at https://rateyourmusic.com/~Togo

I had been drinking Japanese green tea for a while before discovering the world of tea in 2017. I rarely drink blends and generally avoid artificially scented teas. Other than that I try to keep it varied.
