From Nannuoshan

ORIGIN: Panxi, Fuding, Ningde, Fujian, China
MEANING: White hair silver needle (bai hao yin zhen)
CULTIVAR: Da Bai Hao
HARVEST TIME: 12 March 2021
TASTE: Nashi pear, hay, lily

The downy furls of this bud-only tea present something of a changeling to the drinker’s nose: depending on the brewing style, one can view the aromatic floral face, or taste the down-to-earth countenance of wood and hay. A resinous note reminds one of distant trees, a fruity side of a juicy nashi pear, and then appears the sudden scent of lily. White teas being only dried under the sun or hot air, its active enzymes mean the character will continue to change with age as well, presenting continual evolutions in teacups to come.

A refreshingly savoury tea with a sweet aftertaste and soft mouthfeel – that’s how I would summarize this tea. At times it has quite a buttery character, other times it has some marine umami that is similar to a sencha.

Its aroma is also quite complex, dry leaves smell of chestnut, sawdust, hay, and apple pie. On the other hand, during the session I got notes of asparagus, grass, green peas, and chicken meat.
