Details
White tea is one of the most expensive teas in the tea world – the saffron of tea, if you will. White tea is composed of only the youngest buds from a tea plant and each of these buds must be picked by hand. The leaves are then withered and air-dried. No roasting or further oxidation takes place so that the delicate flavor is preserved.
The aroma of the dried tea is rich of apricots and cranberries. The pour is a lemon juice color and you’ll find the aroma softened. The flavor is akin to wind blowing through an apricot orchard; the air picking up a whispered conversation you can’t quite make out. Are they sweet words or astringent ones? Only another sip will tell.
