ADVENT DAY 13, tea 3/3
Logging a day late as I had a Christmas work team gathering. And actually drank on day 14.
Two steeps, each 2 minutes long.
It wouldn’t be truth if I say I never had Ceylon-grown white tea. I had and I quite liked them. But yes, they are quite rare, indeed.
Intense floral notes, slightly reminding me elderflowers; followed with woody notes. But from light trees; birch for instance. Second steep is definitely woodier, with honey notes.
Mouthfeel is long and oily, aftertaste is herbaceous.
Interesting twist of White Peony and I never heard about Ebony Springs Tea Plantation, but they have apparently a good tea. At least their white tea.
