These leaves are huge, it was really hard to measure out the right size portion for my teapot, but I managed :)

To be fair, I’ve been a bit on the sick side the past few days so my taste may be off. The smell out of the package was interesting and very sweet and bakey…like the smell of a strawberry cake in the oven. I don’t usually like white tea, so hopefully this will change my mind. This brews up a very pale color, almost clear, which I guess is typical for white tea. The taste is good, there actually is a taste. With white tea, I usually just get scented hot water, but this has a taste. Maybe adding a bit of sweetener will bring out the strawberry more….I’ll be right back…

Okay, I added just a scant bit of sugar. WOW! What a difference a little sweetener makes! The strawberry is actually at the forefront now, although the bakey type smell doesn’t translate into the taste. I wonder if a bit of milk would really transform this into more of a dessert tea, but I’m a little scared to try it because the tea is so light to begin with. Maybe another day.

I’m rating this tea based on it being the only white tea to date that I would love to have more of. I don’t know if I will order this when my sample is done, but it is possible.

“These leaves are huge, it was really hard to measure out the right size portion for my teapot, but I managed” … exactly why I bought a tea scale (I’m a lover of whites and oolongs so this is constantly a problem for me).

You know what, I have a scale that I could have used, it really didn’t occur to me. How much should a serving weigh?

I like 2.25g/6oz water for whites.

Thanks, I will definately try measuring the tea the next time I try this. I may wait a few days though, I don’t want to go through all my sample before I can taste it properly.

I remember smelling some ‘funky’ cucumber from Adagio a while back and I know I wasn’t the only one who had that funkiness! Anyhow…at first sniff this reminded me of it…almost like a vinegar stench. As it infused it mellowed out, thankfully. BUT…my water wasn’t hot enough…so…I will have to try this one more than once…since I already infused I am still going to drink it…

Ah…heck…I decided to do it iced…pretty much there anyhow…

Strawberry comes thru after the infusion regardless of water temp, apparently. It’s light and pleasant and tasty. A very nice iced tea, indeed. I will try this hot someday but this is the COLD review. YUM

I also liked this iced. This is actually the tea that convinced me that maybe all white teas aren’t bad. I liked this the best drastically oversteeped, like at 7-8 minutes with or without sweetener.

The smell in the package is incredible. Smells like a summer day. The taste in my cup was a little too prefumey for my tastes. I drank it, it was good.
