An Ji Precious Rare White Tea from Wing Hop Fung

100

teaddict drank An Ji Precious Rare White Tea by Wing Hop Fung

Mellow and gorgeous, but just a tiny bit tempermental: infused cool, it is sweet, vegetal, floral; infused too hot, it can get bitter and sharp. Notes of asparagus, peas and honey.

Infused 1g per ounce water at 160 degrees, 30 seconds for first steep, and up to 6 steeps at increasing times/steep.

I scented some of this with citrus flowers from my yard, and it was mind-blowingly good.

I’ve been drinking tea for 30 years, but only bought 2 brands of 2 different teas for most of that time. It took me almost 30 years to discover sencha, puerh, and green oolongs. Now I am making up for lost time.

I try to log most of my teas at least once, but then get lazy and stop recording, so # times logged should not be considered as a marker of how much a particular tea is drunk or enjoyed.
