Okay, I admit it: I don’t “get” white tea. I tend to like bold flavors in my tea and whites just don’t deliver. I’m constantly afraid of burning/oversteeping/take your pick, even more than with greens. In general, white tea is Not My Thing.
But this tea! First off, it has chrysanthemum in it. How could I not try it first out of my huge box of samples? The taste is great, too, and much stronger than I expected from my previous experiences with white teas. Mellow, just slightly sweet, and very satisfying. Is this my first good white tea experience? I think so. I think this also means I’m pretty darn impressed with this company so far.

I fell in love with tea via a white, however I must admit it was brewed by a specialist who really knew what they were doing. White Angel is currently my favorite from Tea Desire. I’ll have to try this one, too!
I just looked it up—sounds delicious! I think this is the first time I’ve really been able to taste the “tea” part of white tea, so that might be part of it too. That and I started out with herbals and breakfast blends. :)
