New tea from Whispering Pines, and 100th tasting note!
This tea is very pleasing to look at, coming in the form of little buds with silver down on them. Once brewed, the buds open up slightly. The aroma is, surprisingly, a lighter version of Zheng Shan Xiao Zhong, with musky pine and longan fruit sweetness. The taste is much more subtle and faintly sweet. It reminds me of a southern California garden in full sun with the fragrance of drying herbs, but not many flowers. Looking at the description later, rosemary was probably what I was thinking of, we have plenty of that around here! A very enjoyable light tea that I will experiment more with.
(This tea is now sold as Yabao on the website instead of Winter White Buds.)
Oh, thanks for reminding me, gotta update that on here :)
That was fast, thanks for paying close attention to customer input!
No worries, thanks for providing the input! How else would I survive? :-)
