Dry, this tea smells exactly like alfalfa hay. Fortunately the taste is better than that, though for the life of me I can’t remember why I thought I had to have an extremely plain white tea. I guess I got overwhelmed by the massive Upton catalog. Oh well, there’s nothing actually wrong with this tea and maybe it will mix well with the flavored greens. I think I overleafed it this time; it was very stemmy and hard to measure, and I kept adding a pinch more because it looked so skimpy, but yeah, won’t be doing that again, it makes the tea too astringent. Also, not getting any of the walnut notes the description promised.
Flavors: Grass
