ashmanra drank Snow Dragon by Harney & Sons

This is so light, I could easily mistake it for a white! The leaves are so long and light that I may have misjudged my leaf amount. It isn’t unpleasant, but I will say it is an extraordinarily subtle cup.

I steeped this for 2 1/2 minutes in 175 degree water. It is very smooth, not grassy or buttery, but perhaps lightly nutty. Like most of my friends! I think of golden fall fields and crisp leaves as I drink it. There is also the taste of melted frost, fresh and clean.

I don’t know – I think I am a bit buttery myself! At least I ate enough butter since Thanksgiving through…now to be composed of at least 66% butter.

LOL! Well, I meant for only the “slightly nutty” part to apply to my friends! We aren’t grassy at all, but I hope we are pretty smoo-oo- th!

Bio

I am a music teacher and homeschooling mom who started drinking loose leaf tea about four 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.

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