Jillian drank Sakura Thé Blanc by Mariage Frères

2nd steeping of these leaves. The white tea is more pronounced, vegetale and nutty-tasting in turns. The candied cherry flavour has morphed into a sort of sugary, syrupy taste with no real flavour apart from ‘sweet’.

Not a tea I’m going to rave about, I think, but still very nice all the same. I need to try more of this to be sure what my opinion on it is.

I didn’t bother trying a second steeping of this because the flavor was so light but next time I might give it a go.

Bio

I’m a university student in her mid-twenties who’s currently working her way toward a Bachelor of Natural Resource Science degree. I love both science and science-fiction and I’m a history nut on top of that. Maybe I should just call myself a nerd and leave it there. ;)

I’ve been drinking tea since I was young but it’s only in the past couple years that I’ve become interested in the good-quality stuff.

I’m also a self-proclaimed Grammar-Nazi, and improper capitalization and spelling invariably makes me twitch (yes, I mean you!)
