Another amazing tea from Vallhallow. The loveliness about pue teas is the vast amount of flavors you can find and the subjectiveness makes it an adventure each and every time. At first, I really wasn’t a fan of white teas. I only had one from Whittard I enjoyed but most of the barnyard flavors just didn’t do it for me. However, it is growing on me (English is so weird). The delicate leaves in the cake are a mix of browns and a few greens with golden fuzz. Earthy in flavor. Not entirely pleasant when steeped for too long. Weird flavors of sawdust and tarnish? Even when steeped for a proper amount of time the flavors fully remind me of a woodworking shop. Various smells of different types of woods. A pencil. Leaves the mouth feeling kind of heavy and somewhat dry. This reminds me of a cross between pure and a white. I feel that if left to mature for a few more years it would develop some nice notes.
