Bai Yu Xiang Cha

A rare green tea made from the precious Jingbai No.2 cultivar, produced in Jingning She Autonomous County, Zhejiang Province. It falls under the broader Huiming Tea tradition but carries its own distinct identity.

TASTE NOTES:

This floral tea carries a fragrance reminiscent of fresh lilies. The infusions are sweet but refreshing, verdant, and gently minty, with a subtle spicy edge. Very forgiving in brewing, it remains smooth and pleasant even with longer infusion times, without turning bitter.
The dry leaves have a pleasant dried grass aroma with soft floral notes. When hot, the leaves release a warm, comforting scent reminiscent of light nutty pastry, with subtle spicy wok notes. The liquor is smooth with a delicate sweetness. It brews well even at higher temperatures (up to 95°C) without becoming bitter, showing excellent quality. The aftertaste is refreshing, with subtle minty and slightly spicy green notes that linger pleasantly.
Overall, it has a unique, almost botanical character, floral with hints of fresh vegetables like asparagus.

This is a charming and distinctive green tea, perfect for those who enjoy elegant, characterful profiles.
