Backlog:
The Black Currant White tea that 52Teas made a few years ago is one of my favorite white tea flavors that Frank has created, and it tasted awesome as an iced tea so I was confident that this would be good too. And it is YUM!
It is a little different from that previous tea because that was made with a Bai Mu Dan base and this is Shou Mei, but it’s still very refreshing. The sweetness and the fresh, lighter flavor of the white tea is a nice match for the tart notes and delicate nuances of the black currant.
This is one that I wouldn’t mind buying again (and again) because it’s not only really good, but it disappeared way too fast! (The second pitcher resteep was really good too.)
