I love this tea because no matter how hard you try, you actually can’t burn it. It’s indestructible. And also, delicious. It’s got a really nice floral sweetness to it; more like a light hint of nectar than a really aromatic flower. There’s also notes of hay and newly grown grass. It’s got a very “spring air” kind of flavour to it, kind of like how it smells after a drizzle.

I am a big fan of straight white teas. I want to try more, but typically they are expensive and my wallet glares at me when I try to buy them so I don’t own many besides this. I love it and am heart broken that it’s been removed from the David’s collection.

Flavors: Gardenias

Bio

Used to be a big coffee drinker, but over time I realized coffee all kinda tastes the same to me so I switched teams.

I am a bit of a foodie. I love to cook at home and try new things. I especially love to find ways to incorporate tea into my cooking. I am a huge book nerd (it’s the only thing I have more of in my house than tea), and I also collect and read comics. I’m a really big scifi/fantasy/horror fan across the entertainment board (books, TV, movies, games, etc). My dream is to have my own tea and book store where I can hang around with other people who really just want to talk about tea and books, and maybe show me pictures of their cats. I also plan on one day owning a very fat french bulldog.

In the tea world: Greens, whites and rooibos are my current favorites. I can always enjoy a good herbal or oolong though. Blacks are kinda bleh to me, but a good yunnan or blend of one could get me interested. I am way more into straight teas then I am blended, though I own more blends than straight teas (go figure).

Currently employed by David’s Tea, so I personally think for a tea junkie I have a pretty ideal job. I’m always down for steeping something new. Suggestions and trade are more than welcome!
