Thank you again to Apr Tea for providing me with the free sample to try this tea. I decided to brew this sample as a large Western style pot of tea, to fit in with my new routine of having a large pot of tea in the evenings following work. Plus, I just recently acquired a new glass tea pot and I thought this would like especially aesthetically pleasing in the pot…

Flavour wise, this was quite pleasant. I found it to be very smooth and soft, with a nice creaminess to the flavour that not all silver needle teas have. In addition to the delicate cream component, the flavour was still majority straw and hay notes with very mild indications of lemon curd, honeysuckle, and cucumber skin. One of the better examples of a bai hao yin zhen I’ve experienced in recent memory, but on the whole I relatively average offering – not ‘go out of your way to stock up on this’ degrees of yummy but the sort of thing that, were you already placing an order, you might toss into the cart if you wanted to restock this tea type because you were out/running low.
