Very pleasant, very delicate, like old lavender sachets. Couldn’t really catch any of the white tea taste. Very few buds in any case, so not one of the best whites.
It took me days to try this, the overwhelmingsweet scent of the dry tea was very off-putting. When brewed it tasted medicinal witha bit of sweet edge. Not for me
This tea smells very strongly of Lapsang Souchong, but doesn’t deliver it in the taste, which surprisingly had a bit of licorice to it. As it cools, there’s more smoke, but it’s not a particularly good tea
The first Iron Goddess of Mercy I have liked and it’s lovely, mouth fillingly sweet and floral, but not at all cloying. It has a touch of vegetal to keep it grounded. Warms you for a while, right down to your tum.
