drank White Tea Matcha by Kiani Tea
1277 tasting notes

Day 11 of the Kiani advent calendar. The instructions say to mix with heated milk, but after how things went with the dragonfruit matcha, I decided to use water instead for fear that the milk would overpower the flavor of the tea. Although the tea is described as floral, I’m getting more of a hay flavor with some sweetness. As it cools, the floral comes out a little bit, reminiscent of chrysanthemum flowers. I’ve never had a powdered white tea before, so I don’t really have a metric against which to measure this except loose leaf white tea. On that scale, it’s neither the best nor the worst white tea I’ve ever had. But I’m also not sure that it’s the right frame of comparison…

ETA: This is my 900th tasting note!
