drank Snow Dragon by Harney & Sons
3226 tasting notes

HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY!

This is a sipdown, but I see I had already taken it out of my cupboard. I am shocked to see that I bought this seven years ago. I would be ashamed of myself for not having finished it long ago, but for one thing.

This tea has aged magnificently.

The leaves are still a light, silvery green and covered in downy hairs. There is a bit of nutty flavor, but the fruity note has gone up two notches at least, and I am on the third steep.

I am trying to drink up my oldest teas and there are some I think I will just oackage up and send away, because they have hung around long enough that I know I don’t really want them. (I’m looking at YOU, grocery store impulse buys!)

This was so good, that instead of enjoying having a little extra space on my tea shelf, I looked to see if they still this so I could re-order. They don’t. That’s probably for the best.

I think Yunnan Sourcing has a Snow Dragon tea, though I don’t know if it’s similar.

Bio

I am a music teacher, tutor, and former homeschool mom (25 years!) who started drinking loose leaf tea about fourteen years ago! My daughters and I have tea every day, and we are frequently joined by my students or friends for “tea time.” Now my hubby joins us, too. His tastes have evolved from Tetley with milk and sugar to mostly unadorned greens and oolongs.

We have learned so much history, geography, and culture in this journey.

My avatar is a mole in a teacup! Long story…
