I picked this one up because Courtney Milam recommended it in her weekly newsletter (if you don't get it, she does amazing tea recs as well as talking about her writing and what's going on in the world). She said it was a lovely tea that was caffeinated, but also calming, and very smooth to drink. I've been wanting to try some white teas, and thought this would be a good one to start with, especially with a contentious election around the corner. It was everything she said it was, and a wonderful intro to white teas. I can't wait to pick up some of Friday Afternoon's other white tea varieties and try those!
The leaves are gorgeous and you can see the quality in the leaf. When tasting, I get light seaweed notes and it’s a pleasant well rounded lighter tea.
