Thank you to Mackie for this sample!
The leaf was so beautiful, and I love white teas. I was contimplating buying this when I make a YS order, so I’m glad I got to try it first.
Steep 1: 200 mL, 90 deg C water, 2 minutes
I’m getting the mouth feel of drinking tea, but none of the flavour? It’s weird. If I had to give it a flavour, I’d say grape skins.
Steep 2: 200 mL, 90 deg water, 1.5 minutes
Slightly astringent mouth feel, very delicate flavours of hay, grapes, fruit, slightly vegetal. It actually tastes a lot like a green tea. There doesn’t seep to be much of a flavour here.
Flavors: Fruity, Grapes, Green, Hay, Vegetal

It is 3 years old, and that could have quite an effect on the leaf.
haha yeah I’ve had that one lying around for quite a long time!
It could be the age of the tea, or it could simply be a lighter white. I know there are some teas (mostly whites) that are naturally light in flavour, and some people really go for that.
I don’t remember it being too subtle as far as whites go, it was never like strong, but I haven’t had it in.. I don’t even remember the last time I had any
