Super wild white peony (wild Bai Mu Dan 白牡丹) from
www.yxhxtea.net. Bai Mu Dan is tip and two leaves. Very nice nose, Kandiszucker, flowers, honey; cup also very sweet and mellow. Some light balsa woodiness, too. Very nice tea! When it chills, you realise how dense it is, a little bit old apricot flesh.
老白 from yxhxtea (23 IV 19) (fuding old white from 2008): very nice, round white tea; very inoffensive, small honeyed sweetness.
milan white (15 V 19) from white2tea: sundried milan dancong leaves from Guangdong. Smells like a white tea, but then is super fruity, like the honey flavour in other white teas replaced by peaches. Very recommendable!
White Gongmei 2014 (18 VIII 19): good, intense nose. Bit metallic, bit rusty; warm bricks. Taste okay, not too amazing.
Hou Kui Bai (Länggass)
26 XI 19: generic white tea, some violets, some baked. Some sourness and spice, very pleasant. A funny tingling.
Blind Western 28 X 21: dried hay flowers, quite breezy; cup itself not too spectacular, dried hay. Still very pleasant! (The big leaves gave it away though, so it wasn't really blind)
