Another tea from the rare tea class in the Global Japanese Tea Association Master Class. The dry leaf is incredibly photogenic. The greens just burst out of the picture. Very pretty. Mostly flat with a few silver buds hidden here and there. Muted greens with pops of lime, pear, and crocodile greens. Also some slight edge curling. The wet aroma is full of spring florals. It’s hard to pinpoint with such a short amount of time to smell it. Liquor aroma is reminiscent of other white teas with barnyard notes but not as strong as other Chinese white teas. However, there is also a nice woody note alongside that reminds me a bit of Palo Santo. The flavor is earthy. Hay and pile of leaves. I would like to revisit this one and give it a proper steeping.

I’m a purist but I will try a flavored as long as it doesn’t have artificial flavors.

I will drink any type and love to taste whatever I can get my hands on.

(Purple is not a type of tea it is a cultivar known as TRFK 306/1)
