Another one I had received in a gift set, but I had enjoyed it so much that I keep buying it. It probably helps that jasmine pearls is my favorite tea, At first sniff (dry) it is predominantly oolong and jasmine, I can’t say I can smell the white tea in it at all, same with after having brewed it. Although when drinking it I can get a hint of the white tea, not much. The oolong and jasmine dominate this one in every aspect, but they blend well together. I usually get 3-4 steepings out of this one and it is a staple in my cupboard.

Its quite an investment to buy white tea, but a investment worthy of each sip if you ask me:) I especially love the silver needles and pearls that have a peculiar delicate combination of flavors that no one can’t get out of some teas besides Pu=Erh , and what more it can take in more infusions and even drink it at night! I like personally like how how white tea can still be enjoyable in late hours and not pay for it afterwords. Just perfect!
Typically when i drink white tea (almost always Silver Needles) I drink it by itself or mixed with Jasmine Phoenix Pearls or some peppermint. I find that anything stronger, like oolong, will over power it and like you said it is quite an investment, one I’d rather not waste mixed with a stronger tea. But for whatever reason, perhaps it’s the ratio used in the Mind + Body, I just love the way they all taste together, and the hint of the white tea makes you slow down and really enjoy it.
You said it! Kudos to the tea growers, an art well appreciable and time honored that really gives care and love in to every leaves they grow! Every cent worth not a drop a dime to disappoint.
