Backlog:
I have a lot of favorite tea companies. This year, I added at least one more “new” tea company to my list of favorites: What-Cha. I love the varieties of white teas that they offer (they offer a stunning array of other varieties as well).
This Darjeeling White from What-Cha may be one of the very finest White Darjeeling teas I’ve come across in my years as a tea reviewer. It’s just so good.
Sweet, delicious, delicate, lovely spice notes … with a wonderfully silky texture. Very refreshing.
It starts with notes of grass followed by gentle spice notes. Mid-sip, I pick up on fruit notes (melon, apple, and grape.) Notes of flower toward the finish, with a slightly dry tail and a clean, sweet aftertaste.

What-cha has rapidly become one of my favourite companies too.
I’ve been impressed with everything that I’ve tried from them and they have such a nice selection of exceptional teas from many different regions to choose from. They’re awesome!
What-Cha has been really influential in developing my palate for straight teas. I think it was with my first order that my tastes started to drift away from flavoured teas. I still enjoy them, but I have a great appreciation for just tea these days.
I want to try everything they have.
Me too! I would love to try all their teas.
I like both straight (pure/unadulterated) teas as well as flavored and/or blended. I enjoy exploring the complexity of a pure tea. I also enjoy tasting flavors with tea to see how well they work with a tea.
I just love tea. I want to try all teas.
Disclaimer: There will be some exception to the “I want to try all teas” statement and I should actually change the statement to “I want to try most teas, some exceptions apply.”
Thanks for the kind words Anlina and LiberTEAS, it does mean a lot to hear the tea is being well received.
