      I'm not really that big of a white tea fan because the flavors are just so light. But, I love this tea blended with other teas -- especially mint teas -- to add a big of lightness/brightness to the taste. Nice blended with black teas as well to cut down any bitterness. :)

      This is a tasty tea. It's earthy with a slight fruity flavor. It's expensive so I won't be buying more, but I would drink more if I had the chance.

      I liked the flavor of this one (I'm a big fan of white teas), but I couldn't get past the aroma.

      I really liked this tea, and so did all of my friends that I served it to, but that price makes it kind of hard to recommend. Maybe I'm not refined enough, but I feel like I've had cups of tea that I liked just as well for much less

      This is always a fun one to have, but it's not my go-to.
