So I’m on holiday in the limousin, France. No Internet signal so I didn’t have my phone but found a dammann freres.
My French is terrible but the lady didn’t have bai mu Dan but said this is ‘a grade up’ from it.
Not sure how bad their bai mu Dan is, but this is not what I would consider a grade up from mine.
Its also a different tea altogether, being greener and thin wiry compared to the image on their website. But they describe the dominant note accurately : ‘plain’.
Its very plain, with gentle green bitterness. No florals or any complexity, no white wine, no white tea even.
Just didnt know what to make of it, very boring.
That is awesome, enjoy your vacation!
Oh, I meant it like ‘I was on holiday’, ive just come back
Beautiful place! Great food, and decent amount of tea culture compared to the UK
Ah cool, yeah, at 2am, I didn’t catch that particular usage of the present tense.
I imagine! But I’m sure the UK has a pretty amazing tea culture too. :)
not the same imho! There is even small fancy tea shops in small towns, and more of a cafe culture. Ours is such a pub culture
i’m still confused about this tea if anyone knows info more than the website
