From white2tea

The 2014 Shoumei is a white tea from Fujian province. The tea has many larger leaves with a mix of buds. Punchy floral fragrances and heavier than average soup for a shoumei. This white tea has a few years of age; it can be aged further or steeped now.

Grandpa style, from last week!

Just tossed a chunk in my cup and stretched that out over the course of an afternoon – it was still going by the time I was ready to take off for the evening. Delicious, thick and creamy with notes of buttery scones and heavy clotted cream, autumnal leaves, butternut squash, and honeysuckles. Damn delightful!

My first shomei. The feels thin and thick at the same tome, hard to explain. Kind of like southern sweet tea, it runs like water but is thick in the mouth. It coats the mouth and throat well and has some slight woody and spice notes. The rest is mostly sugary and slightly flower. More of a brown sugar.
