Togo drank Wild Tree Purple "Sweet Ya Bao" White Tea * Spring 2018 by Yunnan Sourcing

1001 tasting notes

Thanks Derk for the sample! As has been pointed out numerous times, this is a very unique tea. The bouquet is mostly floral while the taste is vegetal and slightly sour. The main notes I get are rose and dill, and they are surprisingly pronounced, especially the latter.

One thing that this tea has going for it is the pretty looks. I am glad to have tried it, but this is not a tea I need to have in my cupboard.

Flavors: Dill, Floral, Rose, Sour, Vegetal

Preparation

195 °F / 90 °C 0 min, 30 sec 2 g 3 OZ / 100 ML

I had been drinking Japanese green tea for a while before discovering the world of tea in 2017. I rarely drink blends and generally avoid artificially scented teas. Other than that I try to keep it varied.
