I got to try this tea as a prize sample at one of Shanti’s tea tasting seminars (otherwise I’m not sure I could justify spending $40-something on a sample!)
It is delightful! I love this tea, it is soft and delicate with a slight grassy note and a sweet and smooth finish. I tried multiple infusions at only 30 seconds steeping time each. The taste did not vary much, other than become lighter, but I did notice by the third infusion the grassy-ness was gone, all I wast tasting was a sweet and delicate white tea.
I think I could have experimented more with the time, 1 minute for the first infusion is pretty short. I was able to get a very nice taste from that 1 minute infusion. Perhaps I will try again and repost.
I would recommend this tea if you are looking for something truly exquisite and are willing to pay ;)
