I love this tea. The leaves are so fuzzy and fluffy. Much more so than in other silver needles I’ve seen!

The flavor is fruity, sweet, and delicate. Lovely. sigh

I was certain that I already logged this but I can’t find it anywhere so…here we go before I decupboard it!

As for the song…I am thinking Tori Amos and Snow Angel for this one!

As for the tasting notes…

Pure! Clean! Crisp! Mouthwatering! A pure delight! This is very nice! It’s sweet and I can taste a hint of fruit-likeness! This is great!
