Sometimes you read a description and decide you need to buy the item described. I wanted to love this. It’s white. It’s black. A mysterious experiment.
However for me, tasting this tea in 2024, it misses the mark. It’s not bad, just not notable. The oxidation is too high and sends the expensive bud material into hongcha territory. The result is strawberry flavored water with an awkward dryness. It’s not a tea to collect nor worthy of serving to guests. It leaves me irritated that it’s not at least the sum of its parts, but instead less than.
I’ve got another 14 grams to get through but I’m just going to give it away and hope someone else finds it to be their cup of tea.
