Anything special, not really, but it is well made and according to the description all hand processed. A for effort and B for the finished product. I remember Bai Lin being a little darker than this blondish presentation but the leaf is uniform, fuzzed and fragrant Brewed gongfu in a small teapot with a quick rinse, then I married 2 steeps together to be able to read the morning news. Refreshing, smooth, mild cocoa, fig, no aftertaste. straight up red tea. There is a most noticeable kick after 15 minutes which is non jarring so I just road the wave.

I think you’ve probably tasted better ones than I have, but Joseph Wesley’s Bai Lin is excellent and though Shangs Tea is dry, it has the same characterisitcs of a white tea which makes it impressive. I’ve heard good things about Teavivres and Yunnan Sourcing’s offerings for Bai Lin as well.
Will give the other sites a shot at turning me on to this tea, had some in Queens at 2 different tea houses and liked it but was not overly impressed but Teavivres and YS do have some yummy selections.
