drank Moonlight White by DAVIDsTEA
11 tasting notes

Sipdown!

It’s been a while since I’ve posted here. Had gone through a burnout late last year, and finally hit the wall mid-February. Gave myself a time out, recovery time was about 4 months. Sadly during this time it affected my tea drinking (I really didn’t feel like doing much of anything)!

I took advantage of the sale at David’s Tea. Got more Coco Colada (so I have about 400g of the stuff mmmmmmmm) and stumbled upon both the Butter Sencha, and this lovely Moonlight White.

I had accidentally oversteeped the tea, having forgotten about it while I got lost in a video game. Surprisingly, even with this boo-boo, I was impressed with the taste of the tea! It’s light, and I do definitely get that hint of honey. I used 1.5 PS…and I threw in a bit of rock sugar. My second steep is just as good (I wonder how may times I can steep?). I actually kept my eye on the clock this time, steeping for around 7 minutes, and again, throwing in a bit of rock sugar (1 PS).

Lovely, just lovely.

I’ll definitely pick up some more, even though I think the tea is still rather overpriced, even with the discount…

Bio

I’ve enjoyed a cup of tea now and then for many years. It was only when I stumbled upon The Tea Emporium ten years ago that I took a keen interest and began to learn more about this wonderful beverage.

Since then I had been a huge fan of Japanese and Chinese green tea. Recently I decided to broaden my horizons and check out the other types of teas out there. Thanks to DAVIDsTEA I developed a palette for herbal and oolong teas.

I came across this site earlier this year when looking up teas to try. The reviews have been most helpful (and I hope what I post offers some assistance too).

Aside from tea a few other things I enjoy are playing the piano, dancing, skiing, kayaking, shooting some pool and having a night out with my foodie friends.
