Glendale Estate White Tea

White Tea by Octavia Tea

Grown high in the mountains of one of the world’s premier tea gardens, Glendale Estate is a truly remarkable tea. Cinnamon-colored leaves yield a golden-brown liquor. Fresh, woodsy notes reminiscent of an alpine meadow give way to undertones of warm spice and port wine. Savor this tea sip after sip.

Very refreshing and unique!

This tastes a bit more like an Oolong than a white tea, and even has a soft mouthfeel that is similar to a dark oxidized Oolong. Notes of raw wood, spice, fruit and honey greet the palate, and a slight acidic taste lingers in the finish. It’s really very interesting and quite delicious!

Finishing off the last I have of this … and it is one that I will miss. It’s a very good white tea.

Dry Leaf Smell reminds me of “clean car” smell or the freshest of fresh! This has a light golden brown color to it that is surprising for a white. Once infused the aroma is that of wood, spice, honey…but just subtle hints of all 3. You really have to search for it. The taste is a little chewy almost…I know I have never tasted a white like this! It’s almost a spiced wood meets drier-honey wine of sorts. It’s really neat! This is a YUMMY Cup!

Sipping a small cup before sending the rest to Ashley…

This is a tea I got awhile back from TeaEqualsBliss thank you very much. Smells like a white tea with a touch of black teaness. Look wise is a white tea but dark leaves in to. This tastes refreshing and light and a medium tasting white tea with abit of floralness to it. And also a little black tea taste like to. I think this tea is really good tasting and I am happy that TeaEqualsBliss was kind enough to send me abit of it.
