Had this once a long time ago, and steeped it up tonight in the hopes that it would be better than I remembered. It’s not. It smells like dusty alfalfa hay, and it tastes the way I imagine alfalfa hay would taste if you brewed it. It’s also kind of drying to the mouth, even though it’s not astringent. Upton lists this under their ‘bold’ teas, and I liked the sound of that, because I find all too often that white tea is weak and flavorless (and also, I thought, how bold can it really be?) But Upton is not kidding about this, the tea boldly and strongly tastes like hay. I guess I should see how the neighboring horses feel about it.
